Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

He's still alive

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

A hundred and five

There was a time early in life

When he gambled to gain

And he carried a knife

And he was winning that very night

He cussed the devil yes he cussed him good

He swore he'd lick 'em

Yes he swore he could

And he dared him to come to

Him if he would Yeah

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

He's still alive

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

A hundred and five

It was early in the morning

When he got to bed

To rest his weary gambling head

When he heard the angry words

His pappy said

Lijiah go and fetch some wood

He heard his words

And up he stood

Even tho it hurt he knew he should

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

He's still alive

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

A hundred and five

Outside he heard the rattle of chains

And he ran from someone

He thought insane

As he heard the devil

Calling out his name

The devil grabbed his suspenders well

And he trembled

As he felt the hand from hell

And he let out with a hairy yell

He jumped in bed with his

Maw and Paw

And he told 'em that

The devil was in Arkansas

And he told 'em he'd

Quit gambling

Or break the law

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

He's still alive

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

A hundred and five

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah

He's still alive

Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah
