Lyrics
Well, I'm gonna get out my sycamore and shine up my shoes
Meet my baby and tell her the news
I bet my bundle on a swayback nag
And I came home winner with a plenty of swag
One foot, two foot slew foot drag
Swing your honey to the sugarfoot rag
Do a little jig and a zig and a zag
And listen to the fiddles as they play that sugarfoot rag
Well, I got a big jug of cinder and a bottle of wine
One's for my honey and the other is mine
Sip on the cider and sip on the wine
They both sip together and a have a good time
I'm gonna spend all my money and a git on a jag
Swing my honey to the sugar foot rag
Walk right up and stomp on the floor
And swing up the middle with a shoofly fourAbout This Song
Sugarfoot Rag is a classic Western swing fiddle tune popularized by Hank Thompson and later by Red Foley and Junior Brown. Its infectious rhythm and melodic hooks have made it a bluegrass jam favorite, though it originated outside the genre.
