Lyrics

I guess you didn't hear me When I told you for the first time Well, don't you worry It won't be the last All I need, a floorboard An' a wooden shoe Step aside an' let my lady thro' Hay-foot, straw-foot Low we lay 'em down Hay-foot, straw-foot Up an' back around See the high priest He took my place When the judge looks to me He saw his son's face Not gonna join you in Your tower of babble, boy Tired of that talkin' I'm sick of that noise Hay-foot, straw-foot Low we lay them down Hay-foot, straw-foot Covering ground I'm not alone An' looks can be deceiving When we get down to it You're talking when you Should be leaving I've been to Nebraska It reminded me of Spain All the questions loaded All my answers same Hay-foot, straw-foot Low we lay them down Hay-foot, straw-foot Covering ground Let us not mince our words Let's say it true this time I need your forgiveness Just like you need mine Tell me how it is that You don't want what he's givin' It ain't no sin, son To be forgiven Hay-foot, straw-foot Low we lay them down Hay-foot, straw-foot All over town
