Sal's Gone to the Cider
Mill
Skillet Lickers
Sal's gone to cider mill
Mill sits up on top of a hill
Sal went down to the cider mill
She drank and drank till she couldn't stand still
Sal went down to the cider mill
She drank and drank till she got her fill
Ask that gal to marry me
She said no but I'll give you a degree
Boys and gals went huckleberry
pickin
All fell down but Sal got a lickin
Sal went down to the field one
day
She got drunk and stayed all day
