Ballad Of Spider John - Jimmy Buffett[00:00:00]

Spider john is my name friend[00:00:12]

I'm in between freights[00:00:16]

And I sure would be obliged[00:00:18]

If you'd share your company[00:00:21]

I know this may sound strange to you[00:00:28]

But if you wait till the song[00:00:31]

Is sung and the story is told[00:00:33]

You might come to understand[00:00:37]

Oh I'm old and bent[00:00:43]

And devil sent runnin' out of time[00:00:45]

When I long ago[00:00:51]

Held a royal flush in my hand[00:00:52]

Oh I was a supermarket fool[00:00:58]

I was a motor bank stool-pidgeon [00:01:02]

Robbin' my hometown[00:01:09]

I thought I lost my blues [00:01:15]

Yes I thought I paid my dues[00:01:18]

I thought I'd found a life to suit my style[00:01:22]

But here I sit old spider john the robber-man[00:01:29]

Long tall and handsome[00:01:35]

Yes old spider john with a loaded hand [00:01:39]

Takin' ransom[00:01:45]

Then one day I met diamond lill[00:01:54]

She was the sweetest thing [00:01:58]

I declareThat the summer[00:02:00]

Breeze had ever blown my way[00:02:02]

But lilly she had no idea [00:02:13]

Of my illustrious occupation[00:02:17]

She thought I was a saint [00:02:21]

Not a sinner gone astray[00:02:23]

But you know that[00:02:31]

The word got around and lilly left town[00:02:33]

And he never saw her again[00:02:37]

Tossin' and turnin' 'causin' my heart to grieve[00:02:41]

Oh I was a supermarket fool[00:02:48]

I was a motor bank stool-pidgeon [00:02:52]

Robbin' my hometown[00:02:58]

I thought I lost my blues [00:03:04]

Yes I thought I paid my dues[00:03:07]

I thought I'd found a life to suit my style[00:03:11]

And I was spider john the robber-man[00:03:18]

Long tall and handsome[00:03:23]

Yes I was spider john with a loaded hand [00:03:28]

Takin' ransom[00:03:34]

That is all my story[00:03:43]

It's been these thirty years[00:03:47]

Since I took to the road[00:03:49]

To find my precious jewel one[00:03:51]

And if you see my lilly [00:03:58]

Won't you give her my regards[00:04:01]

Tell her ole spider got tangled[00:04:05]

In the black web that he spun[00:04:07]

You can tell her that spider got tangled[00:04:12]

The black web that he spun[00:04:15]
