Don't you want to go to heaven Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe?
Don't you want to go to heaven Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe?
Don't you want to go to heaven Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe?
Don't mind the weather, so the wind don't blow
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Don't mind the weather, so the wind don't blow
Yes I want to go to heaven, just the same as any man
Yes I want to go to heaven, just the same as any man
Yes I want to go to heaven just the same as any man
But I can't go to heaven with a possum in my hand
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Hop high, my ladies, three in a row
Don't mind the weather, so the wind don't blow
As sung by Jean Richie.
This song is about 200 years old and originates from Kentucky
