WHEW!!! THANKS, ELIJAH!!!! I just had a super stressful day and I got home and watched this and did some barefooted flat footin' and I feel GREAT now!!!!!!
What neck of the woods are you from? I very much enjoyed this video and am now subscribed and will be passn' long your videos to like minded friends. I'm sure they'll subscribe also.
Thanks for the question! There are a ton of different lyrics in the "Hook and Line" family of tunes so there's not really a specific version at all. Some of the more common verses are: Gimme the hook, gimme the line Gimme the girl called Caroline You take hook, I'll take line We'll all go fishing in the summertime Shout lil Lulu, shout your best Your old Grandma's gone to rest You take a line, I'll take a pole We'll all go down to the fishing hole Roscoe Holcomb adds a bit from "California Blues" which I perform here. Apparently he used to interject it into the song to break up the monotony for the dancers and get them real excited! "Well I'm goin to California, gonna sleep out every night. Well I'm goin to California, gonna sleep out every night."
Well done. True mark of a musician is how he handles a simple tune.
Wow this is incredible love all the different shots and dancing especially
Awesome! The guys in the Sunflower were asking about ya last night.
I play the Banjo and the Fiddle, but not the Spoons, yet. Great Playing.😁😁😁
Stompin in that creek sure looked fun!
Fantastic music video!
This is MUSIC. Great Voice too.
Really nice on banjo and fiddle, and I really like the overall mix. Fiddle is nice and full and vocals sound great!
A lost member of the Carolina "White Chocolate" Drops is back! Great job, Elijah!!
This video made my 5 year old grab some spoons and start clackin' em together.

Hi Elijah, do you know where I can find the lyrics to this song?
Thanks for the question! There are a ton of different lyrics in the "Hook and Line" family of tunes so there's not really a specific version at all.

Gimme the girl called Caroline
You take hook, I'll take line
We'll all go fishing in the summertime
Shout lil Lulu, shout your best
Your old Grandma's gone to rest
You take a line, I'll take a pole
We'll all go down to the fishing hole
