Now
Big
Earl
Bradshaw, he was a lone wolf
He was always on the prowl
And when he'd go out to find a woman
You could hear his soulful howl
Ah -ooh -ooh -ooh -ooh
Ah -ooh -ooh -ooh -ooh
Baby, I'm coming for you
Oh, yeah
Now
Lucy
Dawson, she was a pretty thing
But you know, she was married
Whenever she seen a big girl comin'
She would hide the ring she
was wearing
And he had some love and some wine
An d this went on every night
And big girl would howl for more
But then one night there
came a pounding on
the door
Well, her husband,
he knocked the door down
And he grabbed her viciously
She said,
Earl, hon, would you call the police
Cause I believe he's
a -killin' me
But he turned on the road
where they'd gone
And there was no chance to run
And he said, you've had it, son
But he mis -aimed and
shot him through the
knee
He was naked and
limping down the road
And you could hear him
howling in the distance
But he sounded like a
wounded toad
Oh, wee
Why did you shoot me in my knee?
I was just trying to do
The thing that comes naturally
Thank y 'all.
Alright.
you.
you.
you.
you.
Thank
Thank
Thank you.
you.
I hate to see the world get it like
that, but it had to happen.
I'm going do one more thing out
here by myself with y 'all.
This thing I did, I cut a lot of times,
some other people's cut it and I don't believe
I've ever done it right,
but I think this is a way to do it, just a guitar and me and
y 'all.
So, it's called
Willie and
Laura
Mae
Jones.
