Blitzen Trapper - Fletcher lyrics
[Blitzen Trapper - Fletcher lyrics]
Oh, mama
I've been talkin' to those western stars
They give me comfort at night
Right lyin' in the back of the car
An' I can see your face in the
Place that I go when I'm there
Me an' Jimmy an' the boys runnin'
Dark up in the mountain air, yeah
Got a couple more runs till the
Sun's comin' up in the east
Ol' Fletcher's in the car drinkin' whiskey
From a jar through his teeth
Jimmy ain't back but his tracks
Lead up into the trees
I guess there ain't nothing for
It but to drive
On up and see what we see, yeah, uh huh
So don't you let ol' Fletcher
Take the wheel tonight
His heart's grown cold an' this old dirt road
Runs rough and ragged to a terrible height
So don't you let ol' Fletcher
Take the wheel tonight
There ain't much to live for
But there's this woman and she's
Got me feelin' pretty alright
Lovin', oh Lord, can make me change my ways
So won't you let me live another day
Guess I'd like to live another day
Ol' Fletcher's been drinkin' with a pistol
And he's itchin' to play
Sayin', "Man, I had this woman
She was livin' at the mouth of the bay
But she found me out and now she
Sees a man who wears a suit
I seen him walkin' his dog down by
The company in brand new boots, yeah
Uh huh"
So don't you let ol' Fletcher
Take the wheel tonight
His heart's grown cold an' this old dirt road
Runs rough and ragged to a terrible height
So don't you let ol' Fletcher
Take the wheel tonight
There ain't much to live for
But there's this woman and she's
Got me feelin' pretty alright
Lovin', oh Lord, can make me change my ways
So won't you let me live another day
I guess I'd like to live another day, yeah
Oh, mama
I've been talkin' to those western stars
They give me comfort at night
Right lyin' in the back of the car
An' I can see your face in the
Place that I go when I'm there
Me an' Jimmy an' the boys runnin'
Dark up in the mountain air, yeah
I've been talkin' to those western stars
