Sis Draper |
Kick your shoes off in the corner mama |
Tuck the babies all up snug |
Sis Draper’s comin' over, we all gonna cut a rug |
When you see that lantern swingin' yonder |
Comin' up the Holler Road |
Them dogs’ll get to barkin' |
Ought to tie em all up with a rope |
You boys better get in tune |
Sis Draper’s gonna be here soon |
Don’t shoot no dice nor get too tight |
If you’re gonna pick with Sis tonight |
She came down from the Boston mountains |
There was lightnin' in the air |
Honey on them fiddle strings |
Magnolia in her hair |
She’s a diamond in the rough |
If you can’t see the shine that’s tough |
Play all night for the likes of us |
Sis Draper’s got the touch |
She’ll play all night if she feels like it |
Have some fruit punch if you spike it |
Sis don’t care who don’t like it |
See, ol' Sis has got a Hell of a bow arm on her |
She stepped up and sawed one off |
And uncle Cleve dropped his jaw |
Said she’s the best I ever saw |
She must be from Arkansas |
I think Grandpa used to date her |
Grandma says she still hates her |
All the fellas stand up straighter |
In the presence of Sis Draper |
Sis Draper is the devil’s daughter |
Plays the fiddle Daddy bought her |
Plays it like her mama taught her |
She’s a travelin' Arkansawyer |
Put her fiddle in a box |
Said it’s getting awful late |
She’s on her way to Little Rock |
And Little Rock can’t wait |
So we all stood out in the yard |
Hands all full of watermelon |
Watcher her leave watched her go |
Wishin' I was in that wagon |
Sis Draper is the devil’s daughter |
Plays the fiddle Daddy bought her |
Plays it like her mama taught her |
She’s a travelin' Arkansawyer |
