Oh,
Mr.
Crest,
Mr.
Crest
How
in

you
Expect

Oh,
Mr.
Crest,
Mr.
Crest
How
in
the
world
you
Expect
for
me
to
rest?
You've
got
my
22-20
Layin'
up
across
my
breast
Oh,
if
I
send
for
my
baby
An
she
act
a
fool
An
she
don't
never
come
If
I
send
for
my
baby
She
act
a
fool
An
she
don't
never
come
All
the
doctors
in
New
York
City
I
declare,
they
can't
help
her
none
You
know,
sometimes
she
gets
unruly
An
she
act
like
she
just
don't
wanna
do
Sometimes
she
gets
unruly
An
she
act
like
she
just
don't
wanna
-
But
I
get
my
22-20
I
cut
that
woman
half
in
two
Oh,
your.38
Special
Buddy,
it's
most
too
light
Your
.38
Special
Buddy,
it's
most
too
light
But
my
22-20
Will
make
ev'rything,
alright
Ah-or,
your
.44-40
Buddy,
it'll
do
very
well
Your
.44-40
Buddy,
it'll
do
very
well
But
my
.22-20
I
declare
you,
it's
a-burnin'
hell
I
was
stranded
on
the
highway-hi
With
my
22-20
in
my
-
I
was
standin'
on
the
highway
With
my
22-20
in
my
-
They
got
me
'cussed
for
murder
I
declare,
I
never
have
harmed
a
man
Lord,
oh
I
measured
my
gun
An
it's
just
a-long
as
my
right
arm
I
measured
my
gun
An
it's
just
a-long
as
my
right
-
I'm
gon'
raise
me
some
sand
And
back
down
the
road,
I
declare.
