Kris Kristofferson - Don't Cuss The Fiddle Lyrics
I scandalized my brotherWhile admittin that he sang some pretty songs (and he did)Id heard that hed been scandalizing meAnd, lord, I knew that that was wrong (and I was)Now Im lookin at it overSomething cool and feelin fool enough to seeWhat I had called my brother onNow he had every right to call on meChorus:Dont ever cuss that fiddle, boyUnless you want that fiddle out of tuneThat picker there in trouble, boyAint nothin but another side of youIf we ever get to heaven, boysIt aint because we aint done nothin wrongWere in this gig togetherSo lets settle down and steal each others songsI found a wounded brotherDrinkin bitterly away the afternoonAnd soon enough he turned on meLike hed done every face in that saloonWell, we cussed him to the groundAnd said he couldnt even steal a decent songBut soon as it was spokenWe was sad enough to wish that we were wrongChorus:Dont ever cuss that fiddle, boyUnless you want that fiddle out of tuneThat picker there in trouble, boyAint nothin but another side of youIf we ever get to heaven, boysIt aint because we aint done nothin wrongWere in this gig togetherSo lets settle down and steal each others songsTag:I know that it sounds sillyBut I think that I just stole somebodys songDon williams ? williams - hank williams ? harlan ?
