The Frozen Logger - The Weavers[00:00:00]
Written by:Gilbert/Hays/Hellerman/Seeger[00:00:01]
As I sat down one evening within a small cafe[00:00:03]
A forty year old waitress to me these words did say[00:00:10]
I see that you are a logger and not just a common bum[00:00:16]
'Cause nobody but a logger stirs his coffee with is thumb[00:00:23]
My lover was a logger there's none like him today[00:00:30]
If you'd pour whiskey on it he could eat a bale of hay[00:00:36]
Well he never shaved his whiskers from off of his horny hide[00:00:43]
He'd just drive them in with a hammer and bite them off inside[00:00:49]
My lover came to see me upon one freezing day[00:00:56]
He held me in his fond embrace which broke three vertebrae[00:01:03]
Well he kissed me when we parted so hard that he broke my jaw[00:01:09]
I could not speak to tell him he'd forgot his mackinaw[00:01:16]
I saw my lover leaving sauntering through the snow[00:01:23]
Going gaily homeward at forty eight below[00:01:30]
The weather it tried to freeze him it tried its level best[00:01:36]
At a hundred degrees below zero he buttoned up his vest[00:01:43]
It froze clean through to China it froze to the stars above[00:01:49]
At a thousand degrees below zero it froze my logger love[00:01:56]
And so I lost my lover and to this cafe I come[00:02:16]
And here I wait till someone stirs his coffee with his thumb[00:02:23]
