Is it any wonder that he threw all restraint aside, untethered,
An' let loose a hundr'd antics that for forty years he'd gathered?
Brother, don't you recollect how he whirled an' jumped an' twisted?
He showed them there people capers that they didn't know existed.
An' he murmured unto me, in the red-hot of the revel,
“David danced before the Lord—I will try it on the devil!”
An' let loose a hundr'd antics that for forty years he'd gathered?
Brother, don't you recollect how he whirled an' jumped an' twisted?
He showed them there people capers that they didn't know existed.
