****************** DON T CUSS THE FIDDLE *******************
written by Kris Kristofferson
performed by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Verse 1 (W. Nelson):
I scandalized my brother while admitting that he sang some pretty songs
I heard that he d been scandilizing me and Lord i knew that that was wrong
Now i m looking at over something cool and feeling fool enough to see
What i had called my brother,now he had every right to call on me
Chorus (W. Jennings,W. Nelson):
Don t ever cuss that fiddle,boy unless you want that fiddle out of tune
That picker there in trouble,boy ain t nothing but another side of you
If we ever get to Heaven,boy it ain t because we ain t done nothing wrong
We re in this thing together so let settle down and steal each other s songs
Verse 2 (W. Jennings):
I found a wounded brother drinking bitterly away the afternoon
And soon enough he turned on me like he d done every face in that saloon
Well we cussed him to the ground and said he couldn t even steal a decent song
But as soon as it was spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong
Chorus.
I know that it sounds silly but i think that i just somebody s song
Verse 3 (W. Jennings,W. Nelson):
She s a good hearted woman in love with a good timin man
She loves him in spite of my ways that she don t understand
Through teardrops and laughter we ll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman in love with a good timin man
