Always Keep An Edge On Your Knife Lyrics - Artist : Corb Lund
Well, never put your hat on the bed, son
Never put your hat on the bed 'Cause if your hat's on the bed You might wake up dead So don't you never put your hat on the bed But if you do, be sure it's upside down, son If you do, be sure it's upside down 'Cause if there's any doubt It keeps the luck from running out So if you do, be sure it's upside down I never throw a match when it's dry, son Never throw a match when it's dry Don't you never throw a match 'Cause the grass might catch And burn three counties when it's dry And always keep an edge on your knife, son Always keep an edge on your knife 'Cause a good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the vague uncertainties of life Yes, a good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the uncertain vagaries of life But I never could sharpen no knife Like the one who give the advice Yodelay, yodelay, yodel Well, never sell the old .22, son Never sell the old .22 'Cause the old .22 shot a gopher or two So don't you never sell the old .22 But aim it to the left, a little low, son Aim it to the left, a little low 'Cause the old iron sight Fires high and to the right So aim it to the left, a little low And always tip the glass when you pour, son Always tip the glass when you pour 'Cause if you don't tip the glass Then the foam, it comes fast And runs from the table to the floor But always keep an edge on your knife, son Always keep an edge on your knife 'Cause the good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the vague uncertainties of life 'Cause a good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the uncertain vagaries of life But I never could sharpen no knife Like the one who give the advice Yodelay, yodelay, yodel Well, be sure to put your horse away dry, son Be sure to put your horse away dry 'Cause the hot, wet horse Ain't healthy of course So be sure to put your horse away dry And be sure to thaw the bit when it's cold, son Be sure to thaw the bit when it's cold 'Cause if you don't thaw the bit Then your pony's tongue sticks To the frozen metal bridle when it's cold I never judge a man by his clothes, son Never judge a man by his clothes You gotta look through the dirt And Lord, judge him by his work So don't you never judge a man by his clothes And always keep an edge on your knife, son Always keep an edge on your knife 'Cause a good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the vague uncertainties of life Yes, a good sharp edge Is a man's best hedge Against the uncertain vagaries of life But I never could sharpen no knife Like the one who give the advice Yodelay, yodelay, yodel And I never could sharpen no blade Quite the way he say Yodelay, yodelay, yodel Yodelay, yodelay, yodelay, yodelay, yodel-oh |
