Big Harlan Taylor

(spoken) l once had a sweetheart, the fairest of maidens

She outshined all others that l'd known by far

I had a friend, big fella, name of big harlan taylor

Harlan had a rubber-tyred new shiny car



Oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman

If l figured them all out, 'twould take many years



By the wants of a woman she fell for big harlan

L tried but in vain for to take my own life

Suddenly l had lost all my will to keep livin'

She'd lost her desire to become my young wife



Oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman

If l figured them all out, 'twould take many years



(spoken) well l wanted revenge, and waylaid for big harlan

Then l started wondering, what good would it do?

If a rubber-tyred new shiny car's her ambition

Then l'll just let her have it, and big harlan too



Oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman

If l figured them all out, 'twould take many years

If l figured them all out, 'twould take many years
