Текст песни The Frozen Logger - Cisco Houston
As
i
set
down
one
evening
in
a
timber
town
cafe
A
six
foot-seven
waitress,
to
me
these
words
did
say
"I
see
you
are
a
logger
and
not
a
common
bum
For
no
one
but
a
logger
stirs
his
coffee
with
his
thumb
"My
lover
was
a
logger,
there's
none
like
him
today
If
you'd
sprinkle
whisky
on
it,
he'd
eat
a
bale
of
hay
He
never
shaved
the
whiskers
from
off
his
horny
hide
But
he'd
pound
'em
in
with
a
hammer,
then
bite
'em
off
inside
"My
lover
came
to
see
me
one
freezing
winter
day
He
held
me
in
a
fond
embrace
that
broke
three
vertebrae
He
kissed
me
when
we
parted
so
hard
it
broke
my
jaw
And
i
could
not
speak
to
tell
him
he'd
forgot
his
mackinaw
"I
watched
my
logger
lover
going
through
the
snow
A-sauntering
gaily
homeward
at
forty
eight
below
The
weather
tried
to
freeze
him,
it
tried
it's
level
best
At
a
hundred
degrees
below
zero,
he
buttoned
up
his
vest
"It
froze
clean
down
to
china,
it
froze
to
the
stars
above
At
one
thousand
degrees
below
zero
it
froze
my
logger
love
They
tried
in
vain
to
thaw
him
and
if
you'll
believe
me,
sir
They
made
him
into
ax
blades
to
chop
the
douglas
fir
"That's
how
i
lost
my
lover
and
to
this
caffay
i
come
And
here
i
wait
till
someone
stirs
his
coffee
with
his
thumb
And
then
i
tell
my
story
of
my
love
they
could
not
thaw
Who
kissed
me
when
we
parted
so
hard
he
broke
my
jaw"
