Hey! Hang me for a sucker On the plains out of Narrabri Swingin' a hoe in a CAL-cotton row Sweatin' on the danger to me Bossman's Mr. Tucker He's a man I don't care to defy And his only child, wicked and wild Is seeking my company and she says
She's gonna build me up Just to tear me down (Yeah) Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and all mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory
Hot sun is a killer She'll be waitin' at the end of my line Taking the shade with a cool lemonade Sayin' "boy I wanna talka to you" Bossmans' only daughter She ain't his and she'll never be mine Never be down on a dollar or two Or told what she's gonna do
Yeah she's gonna build me up Just to tear me down (Whoa) Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory Build me up Tear me down I won't kneel 'til the trumpets sound And Tuckers' daughter's a memory
People born with all they need They don't understand Everything you want don't come From holding out your hand Tuckers' daughter thinks she sees A slave at her command I know you need some time yet baby But the time ain't right Babe I just ain't your man
[Guitar solo]
Ooh Yeah she's gonna build me up Just to tear me down (Whoa) Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory She wanna build me up Just to tear me down (Baby come on) I won't kneel 'til the trumpets sound And Tuckers' daughter's a memory
She wanna build me up Just to tear me down (Yeah) Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory Come on and build me up Won't you tear me down (Yeah) I won't kneel 'til the trumpet sounds And Tuckers' daughter's a memory
Come on and build me up Won't you tear me down Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory Build me up Come on and tear me downTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
