I plugged 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
and a Black Crow snuck through |
|
a hole in the sky |
|
so I spent all my buttons on an |
|
old pack mule |
|
and I made me a ladder from |
|
a pawn shop marimba |
|
and I leaned it up against |
|
a dandelion tree |
|
And I filled me a sachel |
|
full of old pig corn |
|
and I beat me a billy |
|
from an old French horn |
|
and I kicked that mule |
|
to the top of the tree |
|
and I blew me a hole |
|
'bout the size of a kickdrum |
|
and I cut me a switch |
|
from a long branch elbow |
|
I'm gonna whittle you into kindlin' |
|
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
whittle you into kindlin' |
|
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
Well I slept in the holler |
|
of a dry creek bed |
|
and I tore out the buckets |
|
from a red Corvette, tore out the buckets from a red Corvette |
|
Lionel and Dave and the Butcher made three |
|
you got to meet me by the knuckles of the skinnybone tree |
|
with the strings of a Washburn |
|
stretched like a clothes line |
|
you know me and that mule scrambled right through the hole |
|
I'm gonna whittle you into kindlin' |
|
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
whittle you into kindlin' |
|
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
Now I hold him prisoner |
|
in a Washburn jail |
|
that stapped on the back |
|
of my old kick mule |
|
strapped it on the back of my old kick mule |
|
I bang on the strings just |
|
to drive him crazy |
|
I strum it loud just to rattle his cage |
|
strum it loud just to rattle his cage |
|
I'm gonna whittle you into kindlin' |
|
Black Crow 16 shells from a thirty-ought-six |
|
whittle you into kindlin' |
|
