VERSE 1: There's a wild hog in these woods
Kim-a-li-kee, quital-li-quaw
There's a wild hog in those woods
Kim-a-li-kee, quaw
There's a wild hog in those woods
They'll kill ya an' suck your blood
Kim-a-li-kee, quital-li-qee, quaw

VERSE 2: I rode around that wild hog's den
Kim-a-li-kee, quital-li-quaw
Rode around that wild hog's den
Kim-a-li-kee, quaw
Rode around that wild hog's den
Spied the bones of a thousand men
Kim-a-li-kee, quital-li-qee, quaw.
