The Frozen Logger - Cisco Houston/Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
Written by:James Stevens[00:00:01]
As I sat down one evening[00:00:03]
Was in a small cafe[00:00:06]
A forty year old waitress[00:00:09]
Told me these words did say[00:00:12]
I see that you are a logger[00:00:16]
And not just a common bum[00:00:19]
'Cause nobody but a logger[00:00:22]
Stirs his coffee with his thumb[00:00:24]
My lover he was a logger[00:00:28]
There's none like him today[00:00:31]
But if you'd pour whiskey on it[00:00:34]
Well he eat a bale of hay[00:00:37]
He never used the razor[00:00:41]
To shaved his horny hide[00:00:44]
He'd just drive them in with a hammer[00:00:47]
Then he bite them off inside[00:00:49]
My lover he came to see me[00:00:53]
Was on a freezing day[00:00:56]
He held me in a fond embrace that broke three vertebraes[00:00:59]
Well he kissed me when we parted[00:01:05]
So hard that he broke my jaw[00:01:08]
And I could not speak to tell him[00:01:11]
He'd forgot his mackinaw[00:01:14]
I saw my lover leaving[00:01:18]
Sauntering through the snow[00:01:21]
Will going grimly homeward[00:01:24]
At forty eight below[00:01:27]
Well the weather it tried to freeze him[00:01:30]
It tried it's level best[00:01:33]
And a hundred degrees below zero[00:01:36]
Why he buttoned up his vest[00:01:39]
It froze clean through to China[00:01:42]
And it froze to the stars above[00:01:45]
And at a thousand degrees below zero[00:01:48]
It froze my logger love[00:01:51]
And so I lost my lover[00:01:54]
And to this cafe[00:01:57]
I come[00:01:59]
And here I wait till someone[00:02:00]
Stirs his coffee with his thumb[00:02:03]
