All I ever wanted
Was a walk down the road
With you there holding my arm
But the hoot owl moans
For me all alone
Tell me pretty…
…?
Is it death or livin
That scares me the most
Or is it just plain bein alone
Seems I'm always alone
When that hoot owl moans
Tell me pretty baby
Are you really…
…of that walk
Down the road
But the hoot owl awakes me
And a cold shiver shakes me
Tell me pretty baby
Are you really gonna break my heart?…
…them old sad songs
Do you hand on every word
Do you swear a cryin' fiddle
Has the sweetest sound on earth
If you shudder at the music
Of a hoot…
…a cryin' fiddle
Has the sweetest sound on earth
If you shudder at the music
Of a hoot owl in the pines
You're on lonesome standard time…
Well if you shudder at the music
Of a hoot owl in the pines
You're on lonesome standard time…
…them old sad songs
Do you hand on every word
Do you swear a cryin' fiddle
Has the sweetest sound on earth
If you shudder at the music
Of a hoot…
…a cryin' fiddle
Has the sweetest sound on earth
If you shudder at the music
Of a hoot owl in the pines
You're on lonesome standard time…
Well if you shudder at the music
Of a hoot owl in the pines
You're on lonesome standard time…
Area's clean and sweet
Snow on the mountain peak
Where I'm campin'
Well, I feel so good
Just like a hoot owl hootin' in a tree
I'll…
…for me to get it on
Mama, mama, when I'm goin' campin'
Well, I feel so good
Just like a hoot owl hootin' in a tree
I'll make friends…
…with a burning crash
My dreams become a gown with a silver sash
A hoot owl sounds, it's a eerie rhyme
I guess it's been around…
…by the light of a Memphis moon
Time dances slow to the rhythm of my feet
The moon hangs low over Rio Street
A hoot owl sounds, it's…
By the dark of the moon I planted
But there came an early snow
There's been a hoot-owl howling by my window now
For six nights in a row
She's coming…
East Texas
Where many martyrs fell
And I know no one can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie Mc
Tell
Well, I heard the hoot owl singing…
By the dark of the moon - I planted
But there came an early snow
There's been a hoot-owl howling by my window now
For six nights in a row
She's…
…to howl
When he hears that ol' hoot owl
Give you all I got to give
That's how we live up on the ridge
Won't you come…
…into the drug store. $20, you pick up sounds of the loon
(Mike)
[hoot owl sound]
"Honey, you look so calm."
"It's the tape. It's…
…are twinkling bright
That old hoot owl is calling, every-things all right
Honky tonk moon, keeps shinin' on my baby and me.
Honky tonk moon, keeps shinin' on my baby and me.
…bet on the grey mare, I bet on the bay
If I'd have bet on ol' Stewball, I'd be a free man today
Oh the hoot owl, she hollers…
…on the grey mare
I bet on the bay
If I'd have bet on ol' Stewball
I'd be a free man today
Oh the hoot owl, she holler…
…a coo and a cuddle,
I kick your foot, like a bicycle pedal;
Pretty little hoot owl and a one-eyed frog,
So pretty, pretty, pretty I could gobble you…
…in
The buzzard said, they fought furious all day
He couldn't understand how Leo got away
Jo Jo runnin' everywhere, spreadin' the news
To the zebras and the leopards and the kangaroos
A hoot…
…owl reported everything he saw
Had his eyes wide open…
