Don't Cuss The Fiddle
Kris Kristofferson
>From the LP.. Who's To Bless & Who's To Blame
D
I scandalized my brother while admittin' that he
G
Sang some pretty songs and he does
A7
And I heard that he'd been scandalizing me
D
And Lord I knew that that was wrong and it was
Now I'm lookin' a little somethin' cool
G
And feelin' fool enough to see
A7
What I had called my brother wrong
D
And he had every right to call on me
Cho.. Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy
G
Unless you want that fiddle out of tune
A7
That pickers are in trouble boy
D
Ain't nothin' but another side of you
If we ever get to heaven boys
G
It ain't because we ain't done nothin' wrong
A7 D
We're in this gig together so let's settle down & steal each other's song
Key Change to Key of E
I found a wounded brother drinkin' bitterly away the afternoon
And soon enough he turned on me like he'd known every face in that saloon
Well we cussed him to the ground & said he couldn't even steal a decent song
But soon as they were spoken we were sad enough to wish that we were wrong
Cho....
B7 E
I know it may sound silly but I think that I just stole somebody's song.
