Gogans
We got a Bill of sale right here
that says he belongs to us
We bought him fair and square last year
and we own the little cuss
Look here and read the writin'
that gives us a legal claim

Oh, we got a Bill of sale right here
with dear little Petey's name
We got a Bill of sale in hand
and lady if you don't budge
we'll pick you up right where you stand
and bring you before the judge

That boy is our property
same as the family cow
'Cause we got a Bill of sale right here
and we're gonna take him now

Nora
You can't have him

Gogans
Gotta do his chores

Nora
You don't love him

Gogans
Paint the barn and wash the doors

Nora
All you've done up to now is break his heart

Gogans
Shine shoes and turn screws
fix a broken fuse

Nora
You'll abuse him

Gogans
Pitch a herd and feeding hogs

Nora
and just use him

Gogans
Pitching hay and choppin' logs

Nora
Look out or I'll take you apart

Gogans
We'd like to see you try
We got a Bill of sale right here
he's ours until he dies

Nora
Stay where you are just one more move
and you'll get it between the eyes
You won't make a slave of him
even if you connive

Gogans
We and we will 'cause
we got a Bill of sale right here

We got a Bill of sale right here
We got a Bill of sale right here

right here!

Nora
You don't love him

Gogans
He's gotta clean and sweep

Nora
You don't love him

Gogans
He has to comb the sheep

Nora
All you've done up to now is break his heart

Gogans
plant seeds and pull weeds

Nora
You'll abuse him

Gogans
carry water from the well
and answer every time we yell

Nora
and use him
Watch out or I'll take you apart

Gogans
we'd like to see you try it

We got a Bill of sale right here
that says he belongs to us
fight all you want
won't do no good
to holler and fume and fuss

Nora
Leave town and keep ON goin'
before I can count to 5

Gogans
We got a Bill of sale right here
We got a Bill of sale right here
We got a Bill of sale right here
right here
right here
