Karaoké Cut Across Shorty Eddie Cochran

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-a all the money and he also had the looks

But Shorty musta had something boys that can't be found in books

A-well-a cut across shorty, shorty, cut across

That's what miss Lucy said

Cut across shorty shorty, cut across

It's-a you I wanna wed'

Now Dan had been in training a week before the race

He made up his mind old Shorty would end in second place

And Dan with his long legs a-flying left Shorty far behind

And Shorty heard him holler out

Miss Lucy you'll soon be mine

A-well-a cut across shorty, shorty, cut across

That's what miss Lucy said

Cut across shorty shorty, cut across

It's-a you I wanna wed'

But Shorty wasn't worried there was a smile upon his face

He knew that he was-a gonna win 'cos Lucy had fixed the race

And just like that old story about the turtle and the hare

When Dan crossed over the finish line he found Shorty waiting there

A well-a cut across shorty, shorty, cut across

That's what miss Lucy said

Cut across shorty shorty, cut across

It's you I wanna wed'

It's you I wanna wed'

It's you I wanna wed'

It's you I wanna wed'
