The New Main Street Singers conjure a tale of the ladies' sister Potato, born at the bottom of the potato cellar. She’s been kidnapped by the local sheriff, leading the clan to form a posse to rescue her. Yet she resists her saviors, as the sheriff wants to marry her.
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
One night mama went to fetch us up a sweet potato
Fell down the cellar stairs
Stork dropped in while she was on the floor
So my sister was born down there
Daddy says this 'un will be nothin' but a misery
Never will be worth a damn
But mama just loved her little sweet Potato baby
With a face like a parboiled yam
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
Potato grew up to be as pretty as a peach
In her calico and honey yellow curls
Went to the apple cider ball at the armory
With all the other ripe and ready girls
Sheriff Dan Pike picked Potato for the polka
But she spurned him with a fiddle de-dee
And before she could turn around and find another partner
Sheriff took her into custody
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
Mama 'n' daddy put together quite a little posse
Countin' me and Jack and cousin Will
We all hopped into the old Chevy pickup
And we caught 'em at the top of the hill
Daddy took his Remington and shot away the lock
For to set his little darlin' free
But Potato said, "Daddy, shut the goldurn door
Sheriff wants to marry me"
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Guess we better leave her there
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it's more than fair
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Guess we better leave her there
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it's more than fair
Mama says it's more than fair
Mama says it's more than fair
