Ballad Of Upsy Daisy

By Jonathan Edwards (1972)
On album Honky Tonk Stardust Cowboy (1972)

Honky Tonk Stardust Cowboy
I start out down at the bottom of the hill
Chasing that fantasy free thrill
And I'm rushing, and rushing, and rushing up the hill - Chasing that fantasy free thrill

Upsy daisy - Sweet as can be
Sweet upsy daisy stay with me
And I'll bring you flowers most every day
Sweet upsy daisy please stay

And I'm rushing right down on that steel barbed wire - and I'm headed right for that fence of fire - And I grab right ahold of that 'lectric wire - But the wire grabbed a whole tug of me

Upsy daisy - Sweet as can be
Sweet upsy daisy stay with me
And I'll bring you flowers most every day
Sweet upsy daisy please stay

Running down the road and I'm trucking my clothes - and my body is feeling like light
And the sheriff comes along and I get lassoed
And he throws them silver cuffs on tight

Upsy daisy - Sweet as can be
Sweet upsy daisy stay with me
And I'll bring you flowers most every day
Sweet upsy daisy please stay

Oh, I spent 5 days in the Pomeroy Jail
It's Saturday night and I'm out on bail
I'm going finding the arms of the one that I love
I'm going finding the arms of the one that I love

Upsy daisy - Sweet as can be
Sweet upsy daisy stay with me
And I'll bring you flowers most every day
Sweet upsy daisy please stay
