Ely Joe Crazy Lemon Lyrics

Crazy Lemon Lyrics

Chorus



They call me the Crazy Lemon



I'm crazy...wild...free, for a while



I can't help what they think



I was born that way.



I'll be a little crazy till my dyin' day.



Just a man on the run they call the Crazy Lemon.







It's true that I stole a Budweiser truck.



I changed my mind, but the truck got stuck



In a muddy ditch so I hitched it back again



The second car that passed had a cherry on top.



Just my luck it was first to stop.



They said with a grin, looky here it's the Crazy Lemon.







Chorus











Yeah, I admit that I run a little illegal cargo



From the border and the coast, north to Fargo.



I was busted with a truck load of Juarez violins.



Seems everything that I tried to sell



Just bought me a room in some Iron Hotel.



Things were looking grim for the Crazy Lemon.







Chorus











It's true that I jumped a little bit of bail



From a handful of city and county jails.



Seeking out a spiritual hideout with a friend of mine.



Is easy to hide from a 6 ft. cell.



No use tryin' to hide yourself.



So play another hymn for the Crazy Lemon.







Chorus
