APalmetto rose in the sidewalk mud Pearly white stem and a big green bud DCatch him coming out of a King Street store ABullshit story about the Civil War

Out on DSullivan's Island, they're Aswimming On the Dbeach where the big boats rolledA in With theD earliest slaves, women and Achildren Our first EAmerican kin
Here on DKing Street we're selling our Aroses DTwo for a five dollar Abill And Dtonight after everything Acloses I'll follow my own Efree will
And I've F#mtaken my Efill D A I've F#mtaken myE fill D A
