Cut Across Shorty lyrics
Song information
Artist: Rod Stewart Album: Unplugged... And Seated
Lyrics
(Marijohn wilkin, wayne p. walker) Original recording by by eddie cochrane Now a country boy called shorty And a city boy named dan Had to prove who could run the fastest To win miss lucy's hand
Now dan had all the money And he also had the looks But shorty must have had that something boys That can't be found in books
Chorus: And "cut across shorty, shorty, cut across" That's what miss lucy said "Cut across shorty, shorty, cut across It's you that I wanna wed"
Wait a minute Now dan had been in training For weeks before the race He'd made up his mind old shorty Would end in second place Now dan with his long legs flying Left shorty far behind And shorty heard him holler out Miss lucy will soon be mine
(Chorus)
But shorty wasn't worried There was a smile upon his face 'Cause lucy had fixed the race And just like that old story 'Bout the turtle and the hare When danny crossed over the finish line He found shorty waiting there
(Chorus)
It's you that I wanna wed, no no And oh lord it's you I wanna wed It's you that I wanna wed
