Low Estate Lyrics
16 Horsepower
To hell with boys creepin up slowly
Swingin them shovels round
Diggin up words of pleasure
From evil hollow ground
O - an heres one now girl
The devil is in his eye
Youd better start stirring up soil boy
Or hear er youll lye
Whispered to you in the dark
And I think you heard me say
Lets say goodbye like we said hello
In a friendly kind of way
Ye charlies neat an charlies keen but
David hes a dandy
David hes a nice young man
He feeds the girls on candy
Whispered to you in the dark
And all that sordid gain
Lets say goodbye like we said hello
In a friendly kinda way
Now what I dones my damage
An what you do is yourn
Yall got nothin on me
But Ill take that there
Crown of scorn
