He Shouldn't-A, Oughtn't-A Swang on Me!
He sleeps out there, out where the coyotes wail The reason he ain't at the bar with the boys Makes quite a dismal tale...
He shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me He oughtn't-a, shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, no, siree You don't get many callers Sleeping on the lone prairie But he shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me. Are you boys remember Harry The wrangler I was set to marry A long man, strong man One night he yells ' I'm from Texas!' And socks me in my solar plexus. Well having normal, good reflexes, I knocked him on his can! He shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a blacked my eye. I'm really a lovable, peaceable kind of guy. I wouldn't scare a rabbit and I couldn't harm a flea, But he shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me. This here job is mighty trying, Sometimes the room is fairly flying with High balls, eyeballs Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com One guy till somebody got' em Tore up the joint from top to bottom I think I was that one that shot him As near as I recall. He shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me. He massacred eight or nine minutes, at Lasy Bee! He then took on the sheriff, and the sheriff's deputy, But he shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me. If this story has a moral, It's: When you're looking for a quarrel Or slowdown; slow down. If by now, you haven't mastered The gentle art of getting plastered, You're just a Low- Down, you ain't mastered The motto of our town! You shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a start no fight Our burying grounds are most impressive sight! The message on them tombstones is a simple as ca be: He shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me... He shouldn't-a, hadn't-a, oughtn't-a swang on me.
