Skip To My Lou Lyrics

Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
Fly's in the buttermilk,
Shoo, fly, shoo,
Fly's in the buttermilk,
Shoo, fly, shoo,
Fly's in the buttermilk,
Shoo, fly, shoo,
Skip to my Lou, my darlin'.
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
Lost my partner, what'll I do
Lost my partner, what'll I do
Lost my partner, what'll I do
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
I'll find another one, prettier, too.
I'll find another one, prettier, too.
I'll find another one, prettier, too.
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Skip to my Lou, my darlin!
I've got a friend his name is bill,
He used to have a house on the side of a hill,
One leg's longer than the other one still.
Skip to my lou my darling.
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou

Information About Skip To My Lou

''Skip to My Lou'' is a traditional song popularized during the 18th century American frontier period as a partner-stealing dance. The “loo” is the Scottish word for “love” suggesting the song could have originated there before finding its way to America. It is speculated that the song was performed in strict Protestant communities without instruments or dancing but as a 'play-party' to avoid objections from the respectable folk.

The Carter Family, Judy Garland, Nat King Cole and Pete Seeger have all recorded versions.
