The Frozen Logger (Live) - Odetta[00:00:00]
As I sat down one evening,[00:00:07]
Was in a small café[00:00:10]
A seventy- fourly years waitress[00:00:14]
To me these words did say[00:00:17]
I see you that you are a logger[00:00:22]
And not just a common bum[00:00:26]
But nobody but a logger[00:00:29]
Stirs his coffee with his thumb[00:00:32]
My lover he was a logger,[00:00:38]
There's none like him today[00:00:42]
If you'd pour whiskey on it[00:00:45]
He'd eat a bale of hay[00:00:48]
He never share whiskey[00:00:53]
To most of his horny hide[00:00:57]
He'd just drive them in with a hammer[00:01:00]
Then he'd bite them off inside[00:01:04]
My lover he came to see me[00:01:09]
Was on a freezing day[00:01:12]
He held me in a fond embrace[00:01:16]
That broke three vertebraes[00:01:19]
He kissed me before we parted[00:01:24]
So hard that he broke my jaw[00:01:28]
And I could not speak to tell him[00:01:31]
He forgot his mackinaw[00:01:34]
I saw my lover leaving[00:01:39]
Sauntering through the snow[00:01:43]
Well going grimly homeward[00:01:47]
At forty eight below[00:01:51]
Wll the weather tried to freeze him[00:01:55]
It tried its level best[00:01:59]
At a thousand degrees below zero[00:02:02]
He buttoned up his vest[00:02:05]
It froze clean through to China[00:02:10]
And it froze to the stars above[00:02:14]
And at two thousand degrees below zero[00:02:17]
It froze my logger love[00:02:21]
And so I lost my lover[00:02:26]
And to this café I come[00:02:30]
And here I wait till someone[00:02:33]
Stirs his coffee with his thumb[00:02:36]
