Crazy Lemon |
They call me the Crazy Lemon |
I’m crazy… wild…free, for a while |
I can’t help what they think |
I was born that way |
I’ll be a little crazy till my dyin' day |
Just a man on the run they call the Crazy Lemon |
It’s true that I stole a Budweiser truck |
I changed my mind, but the truck got stuck |
In a muddy ditch so I hitched it back again |
The second car that passed had a cherry on top |
Just my luck it was first to stop |
They said with a grin, looky here it’s the Crazy Lemon |
Yeah, I admit that I run a little illegal cargo |
From the border and the coast, north to Fargo |
I was busted with a truck load of Juarez violins |
Seems everything that I tried to sell |
Just bought me a room in some Iron Hotel |
Things were looking grim for the Crazy Lemon |
It’s true that I jumped a little bit of bail |
From a handful of city and county jails |
Seeking out a spiritual hideout with a friend of mine |
Is easy to hide from a 6 ft. cell |
No use tryin' to hide yourself |
So play another hymn for the Crazy Lemon |
