Lyrics:
First time I saw her I fell in love
Sittin' on the back porch, fiddle and a bow
Papa's in the field, makin' barley grow
Laugin' and singin',
and the man of the fiddle
He wasn't no slouch he could really drag that bow
Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired
I didn't hear him say, 'cause he
Hey, diddle, diddle
The cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog laughed
To see such sport
And the dish ran away with the spoon
and
They were tappin' their feet
But just when they were ready
To play the first beat
God walked in the room and
A hush filled the air
Gabriel put down his
On my fiddle
Playing tunes for Neb
It's hard for a little
Sucking thumb in bed
I'm terrified that my life is one big mess
Haunted by my very own
takin' to the quakin' and this makin' with the shakin' leaves me achin', olé!
First shake around and settle there
Then you shake around and settle here
the street light
Take a real close at what it look like
A young nigga in the ghetto raised up on whit
The first thing momma told him was don't take no shit
When I play on my fiddle in Dooney
Folk dance like a wave of the sea
My cousin is priest in Kilvarnet
My brother in Mocharabuiee
I passed my brother
dadada, dadada, daaadaaa)
Told up tell 'em y'know
It's hard I got my motto
Yeah I got my motto
Rerun just got a bottle
Got a lotta fiddle ooh I got
When I wake up every morning you're the first thing that I see
And like a new day that is dawning I feel the warmth come over me
I can face the world
did me mither know
When first she cradled me,
That I would become a rovin' boy
And die on the gallows tree
Chorus
Untie these bands from off my hands,
Saw you by the river
Eyes like emeralds shine
Heart beats like a fiddle
Now you're forever mine
Danced in the moonlight
Stars alone will know
to play the fiddle on his own
His mom wasn’t there much is dad he’d never known
On the first day of his life he was put on methadone
People said Joseph
your opening
Oh but I know I gotta meet a lot of requirements
First I gotta accept you in the lobby and the isle and
You've probably already been with
know the sorrow that we have to bear
For the one that I'm tied to was the first to prove untrue
Yet they call our love a back street affair
[ fiddle ]
But she don't mind
This ain't the first time, it slipped my mind
Just one more round
To the last go round
When that fiddle plays, that lonesome sound
takin' to the quakin' and this makin' with the shakin'
leaves me achin', ole!
First shake around and settle there
Then you shake around and settle
years and I haven't had the opportunity to reach out
So I figured why not now.
I guess the first thing I want to thank you for is the Internet
For
right, caught in the middle
Battle of good and evil, armageddon
Sometimes you gotta head first into the shitstorm
And hope if you're hit, that you skip
her eyes, desire at first sight
Shot in the dark
One step away from me
And when he saw her pretty face, it was a castle in the clouds
His
the centerpiece
Oh my god
Journalists across the globe are officially critiquing my first eight bars
Piety for the fam, embargo piggybackers
Navigate sim-city
thumpin' full throttle
Bout' then I knew I was ready for my first bottle
It was a doubletime polka with a cryin' fiddle
Hit that dance floor slidin' born
you niggas cannot keep up
Tell the bitch go fiddle squittle somewhere else
You can't
You can't catch up
You can't catch up
You can't catch up
Tell
and the man of the fiddle
He wasn't no slouch he could really drag that bow
Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired
I didnt hear him say, 'cause he
