Low Estate Lyrics

Low Estate

to hell with boys creepin` up slowly
swingin` them shovels `round
diggin` up words of pleasure
from evil hollow ground
o - an` here`s one now girl
the devil is in his eye
you`d better start stirring up soil boy
or hear e`r you`ll lye
whispered to you in the dark
and i think you heard me say
let`s say goodbye like we said hello
in a friendly kind of way
ye charlie`s neat an` charlie`s keen but
david he`s a dandy
david he`s a nice young man
he feeds the girls on candy
whispered to you in the dark
and all that sordid gain
let`s say goodbye like we said hello
in a friendly kinda way
now what i done`s my damage
an` what you do is your`n
y`all got nothin` on me
but i`ll take that there
crown of scorn
