(Shel Silverstein) They say there he sits in his big white wicker rocker Eatin` candy coated cashews sippin` orange lemonade While a sweet young thing fans the flies from off his eyebrows He`s dozin` in the green catalpa shade Lord, they say that Jesse Langtree`s got it made. A little bit south of the Okechobee There`s a story that the swamp folks tell About a mean old man named Jesse Langtree And a sweet young maid and a bottomless well. That water`s cold but that don`t matter How deep it is no one can tell Just drop a stone you`ll never hear it splatter It just falls down, down forever in the bottomless well. Through fifteen miles of snakes and gators With the raging fever and the trembling chills I wandered lost through the Okechobee And there I seen `em sittin` there by the bottomless well. Yeah now there he sits in his big white wicker rocker Eatin` candy coated cashews sippin` orange lemonade While a sweet young thing fans the flies from off his eyebrows He`s dozin` in the green catalpa shade Lord, they say that Jesse Langtree`s got it made. (Oh let`s hear it for Jesse now, hey Jesse.) I asked her for a drink of water And as Jesse slept me and her we talked a spell She said that she was his wife and daughter, Lord, Lord But his heart was cold, cold and dark as the bottomless well. And as he slept I bent to kiss her I heard a loud and jealous yell Felt my head explode in darkness two big hairy arms picked me up And dragged me to the bottomless well. I woke up in fear and trembling I was staring down into the jaws of hell As he held me high above his shoulders A gonna throw me down, down, down to the bottomless well. Now here I sit in Jesse`s big white wicker rocker Eatin` his candy coated cashews sippin` his orange lemonade While that sweet young thing fans the flies from off my eyebrows I`m dozin` in the green catalpa shade Enjoying things that Jesse Langtree made. Oh, God bless you Jesse. Now some folks say that sweet thing pushed him But I was there and I`d swear he fell But it ain`t murder cause he ain`t dead cause he`s still a fallin` Goin` down, down forever in the bottomless well. Goin` down, down, down, down, down, bye Jesse... | Похожие исполнители:
