Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Lumberjack , by - Brook Benton. Song from the album Greatest Hits: The Mercury Years, in the genre R&BLumberjack |
| For my woman |
| I was a lumberjack |
| For my woman |
| I broke my back |
| I never knew she had her fun |
| While I worked in the blistering sun |
| Making great big old trees |
| Into little bitty ones |
| Rain or shine, sleet or snow |
| I couldn’t say no |
| Feeling food, feeling bad |
| I had to go |
| Ain’t funny what a kiss |
| And a great big smile can do |
| When a woman ain’t worth |
| The heel off a good man’s shoe |
| Then came the day |
| She ran away with her man |
| While I worked, she stole my pick |
| This was a fine |
| I gave my heart and my soul |
| She left me here to hold |
| A grieving hand and an aching back |
| I’m a broken hearted man |
| Just a weary lumberjack |
