Big Smith Burn Down The House (and Leave By The Light Of The Fire)
CHORUS:
I'm gonna burn down the house and leave by the light of the fire
I'm gonna go back to the still and fulfill my desire
Girl you ain't been good to me I tell you that I ain't no liar
I'm gonna burn down the house and leave by the light of the fire
They were dancin' to my fiddle when my little girl answered my riddle from the day before
Oley you can marry me but you won't ever be playin' on your fiddle no more
It had been my favorite sin but let me tell you friend there's only so much that a fiddle's good for
She had me a-thinkin' I was gonna be a deacon if I'd only tow the line
So sun up to sun down I was using my backbone but not necessarily my spine
I got a jealous tickle I threw down my sickle went home before the supper chime
I saw the preacher in the rockin' chair burnin' up the horsehair the wife was keeping right in time
CHORUS
George brought the whiskey
George brought the whiskey
George brought the whiskey
CHORUS
