Brenda Lee - The Lumberjack Had A Lady lyrics
Your rating:
(Denice & Christopher Crockett) The lumberjacks were sittin' in the moonlight When she stepped from the whisperin' pines A vision of a lady in a black satin gown With a fiery look in her eyes She told them not to ask where she came from As she slipped off her shawl by the fire She said, "I wonder if you gentlemen Could keep me for the night" And when she smiled the flames grew higher The lumberjacks had a lady She was wild as the night in the woods The lumberjacks had a lady And they never ever had it so good They took her to a shack in the shadows And they watched her as she put on the light She had a look in her eyes that made men realize The things they were thinkin' were right As the moon grew dim the first snuck in With a bottle and a kerosene lamp Before the break of the day they all knew the way From their cabin to the lady in the shack The lumberjacks had a lady She was wild as the night in the woods The lumberjacks had a lady And they never ever had it so good I know they light the logs at night And talk about her Some say she was a spirit of the fire And some of them say she was just a runaway But as they talk the flames grow higher The lumberjacks had a lady She was wild as the night in the woods The lumberjacks had a lady And they never ever had it so good
