Jerry (This Tirnber Got Lo Roll) |
| Timber, timber |
| Lord this timber gotta roll |
| I got to pull this timber 'fore the sun go down |
| Get it cross that river 'fore the boss comes 'round |
| Get it on down that dusty road |
| Come on Jerry let’s tow this load, |
| Cryin' timber, timber Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Timber, timber, Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Well my old Jerry is an Arkansas mule |
| Been everywhere and he ain’t no fool |
| Work get heavy, ol' Jerry get sore |
| Pulled so much he won’t pull no more |
| Cryin' timber, timber Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Timber, timber, Lord this timber gotta roll |
| The boss he tried to shoot ol' Jerry in the head |
| Jerry ducked that bullet and stomped him dead |
| Stomped that boss till I wanted to scream |
| Should have killed him 'cause he’s so mean |
| Cryin' timber, timber Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Timber, timber, Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Well the boss kicked Jerry and made him jump |
| Jerry reared and kicked the boss on the rump |
| Now my old Jerry was good old mule |
| Had it been me Lord I had a killed that fool |
| Cryin' timber, timber Lord this timber gotta roll |
| Timber, timber, Lord this timber gotta roll |
