lirik lagu peg leg jessie’s daughter – buddy jewell
[verse 1]
just south of town ’bout a half mile down past cemetery ridge
out behind the levy where the moss grows heavy there’s a one lane wooden bridge
that leads to a backwoods beer joint bar they call the loaded dice
cross that bridge once, you might not cross it twice
[verse 2]
i know first hand it’s run by a man called peg leg jesse long
he got his name when a poker game he was cheating and went wrong
he’s got a cajun daughter, ol’ jesse’s taught her how to double deal a man
when she casts her spell that jezebel holds you down like sinking sand
[chorus]
he’s the meanest man in catahoula county
daddy warned me son ol’ jesse’s gun don’t ever leave his hand
i hear the devil was his father, boy you can’t walk on water
so don’t press your luck with peg leg jesse’s daughter
[verse 3]
but i was young and wild and that devil’s child was dealing at the dice
in a sultry voice she said hey boy tonight’s your lucky night
well the lights were low when i pulled her close out on that sawdust floor
when our lips touched ol’ jesse cussed and c-cked that forty-four
[chorus]
he’s the meanest man in catahoula county
daddy warned me son ol’ jesse’s gun don’t ever leave his hand
i hear the devil was his father, boy you can’t walk on water
so don’t press your luck with peg leg jesse’s daughter
[bridge]
i was running fast when that bullet p-ssed and slammed into that door
he yelled bet your life i won’t miss twice, don’t come ’round here no more
[chorus]
’cause i’m the meanest man in catahoula county
ain’t you heard son ol’ jesse’s gun don’t ever leave his hand
you can bet your bottom dollar you’ll wind up in deep water
if you press your luck with peg leg jesse’s daughter
don’t press your luck with peg leg jesse’s daughter
[verse 1 repeated]
just south of town ’bout a half mile down past cemetery ridge
out behind the levy where the moss grows heavy there’s a one lane wooden bridge
that leads to a backwoods beer joint bar they call the loaded dice
cross that bridge once, you might not cross it twice
