Cut Across Shorty
(marijohn wilkin, wayne p. walker)
Now a country boy named shorty
And a city boy named dan
Had to prove who could run the fastest
To wed miss lucys hand
Now dan had all the money
And he also had the looks
But shorty musta had that something boys
That cant be found in books
Chorus:
cut across shorty, shorty, cut across
Thats what miss lucy said
cut across shorty, shorty, cut across
You know its you that I wanna wed
Wait a minute
Now dan had been in training
About a week before the race
He made up his mind old shorty
Would end in second place
You know dan with his long legs flying
He left shorty far behind
Shorty heard him holler out
Miss lucy that youll soon be mine
(chorus)
But shorty wasnt worried
There was a smile upon his face
cause old lucy had fixed the race
And just like that old story
About the turtle and the hare, you know that thing
When danny crossed over the finish line
He found shorty waiting there
(chorus)
Its you that I wanna wed, no no
And oh lord its you I wanna wed
Its you that I wanna wed
