I hear the rooster crow
Caffeine up and here I go
Lord I pray it’s a diddle-eye-day
Got me a list of honey do’s
I reach down to tie my shoes
I’m on my way, it’s a diddle-eye-day
Mm-mm it’s a diddle-eye-day

Diddle-eye-oh diddle-eye-aye
Diddle-eye-whistle diddle-eye-say
Diddle in the middle of the fiddle I play
Diddle-eye-day

Cool my feet down in the crick
Whittle a while on a hickory stick
Sing a little lick on a diddle-eye-day
Walk the dog, slop the hog
I might even saw some logs
Just because it’s a diddle-eye-day
Mm-mm it’s a diddle-eye-day

Diddle-eye-oh diddle-eye-aye
Diddle-eye-whistle diddle-eye-say
Diddle in the middle of the fiddle I play
Diddle-eye-day

Get your banjo sing me a song
Pass around that demi-john
Dance a step to old “Lost John”

Diddle-eye-oh diddle-eye-aye
Diddle-eye-whistle diddle-eye-say
Diddle in the middle of the fiddle I play
Diddle-eye-day

I Like cornbread I like beans
I like hangin’ in the bluegrass scene
Every day is a diddle-eye-day
Mm-mm it’s a diddle-eye-day
