Uncle Lijiah (LP版) - Black Oak Arkansas[00:00:00]
Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah[00:00:31]
He's still alive[00:00:37]
Oh Uncle Lijiah Uncle Lijiah[00:00:40]
A hundred and five[00:00:46]
There was a time early in life[00:00:49]
When he gambled to gain[00:00:51]
And he carried a knife[00:00:53]
And he was winnin' that very night[00:00:54]
He cussed the devil yes he cussed him good[00:00:58]
He swore he'd lick 'em[00:01:00]
Yes he swore he could[00:01:02]
And he dared him to come to[00:01:03]
Him if he would Yeah[00:01:05]
CHORUS[00:01:08]
It was early in the mornin'[00:01:27]
When he got to bed[00:01:28]
To rest his weary gamblin' head[00:01:29]
When he heard the angry words[00:01:31]
His pappy said[00:01:33]
"Lijiah go and fetch some wood "[00:01:36]
He heard his words[00:01:38]
And up he stood[00:01:39]
Even tho it hurt he knew he should[00:01:40]
CHORUS[00:01:44]
Outside he heard the rattle of chains[00:02:04]
And he ran from someone[00:02:07]
He thought insane[00:02:08]
As he heard the devil[00:02:09]
Callin' out his name[00:02:10]
The devil grabbed his suspenders well[00:02:13]
And he trembled[00:02:16]
As he felt the hand from hell[00:02:17]
And he let out with a hairy yell[00:02:18]
He jumped in bed with his[00:02:23]
Maw and Paw[00:02:25]
And he told 'em that[00:02:26]
The devil was in Arkansas[00:02:27]
And he told 'em he'd[00:02:28]
Quit gamblin'[00:02:29]
Or break the law[00:02:30]
Chours[00:02:31]
