Brother Bill (Live 1955 Crescendo Club)

Well, me and brother Bill went a huntin' Away up in the hills of Maine The reason why we went up there We thought we'd catch some gain. And as we were a huntin' away In the middle of the night We shot somethin' that looked like a grizzly bear The doggone thing turned white. Well, I dropped that gun And away I run My brother Bill says boy What's the matter with you? And he'd known like me He'd've ran some too Well, I'd ran so fast to say And they couldn't catch me all day. Away I'd run cross that field They couldn't catch me with an automobile My brother Bill got so excited He commited shootin' at me I heard those bullets sizzlin' All among those trees. I was runnin' so fast that night My feet wasn't touchin' the ground I heard a little tailbird in the tree Singing he's Alabamy bound. Well I'm goin' home I'm all alone My brother Bill says boy What's the matter with you? And he'd known like me He'd've cut out too Well, I run so fast to say And they couldn't catch me all day. Away I run cross that field They couldn't catch me with an automobile. No, they couldn't catch me with an automobile...
