Songtext Cross cut saw blues Tommy Mcclennan

Cross cut saw blues

Now, I'm a cross cut saw
Drag me 'cross yo' log
I'm a cross cut saw
And drag me 'cross yo' log
Babe, I'll cut yo' wood so easy
You can't help but say, 'hot dog'

They call me, Wood Cuttin' Sam
Call me, Wood Cuttin' Ben
But the woman I did wood cuttin' for
She wants me back, again

'Cause I'm a cross cut saw
Baby, drag me 'cross yo' log
Yeah
I'll cut yo' wood so easy
Can't help but say, 'hot dog'

I got a double bladed ax
An it sho' cuts good
But try my cross cut saw
He'll eat on through the wood

'Cause I'm a cross cut saw
Baby, drag me 'cross yo' log
I'll cut yo' wood so easy
You can't help but say, 'hot dog'

Now, look-a-here, mama
Ya you stay last night?
Said, 'It ain't none a yo' bid'ness
You don't do me right'

'Cause I'm a cross cut saw
Baby, drag me 'cross yo' log
I'll cut yo' wood so easy
Can't help but say, 'hot dog'.

Now, when ya go to fishin', now
Don't forget the pole
You-you's a good girl
But you ain't been out long

I'm a cross cut saw
Ooh baby, ease me cross yo' log
I'll cut yo' wood so easy
Can't help but say, 'hot dog'

'I'll play us a little.'

(guitar to end)
