16 Shells From A Thirty-Ought-Six(1)
(Live version "Big Time")
Good evening!
Plugged(2) sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six(3)
And a black crow snuck through a hole in the sky
And I spent all my buttons on an old pack mule
And I made me a ladder from a pawn shop marimba(4)
I leaned it all up ‘gainst a dandelion tree
I leaned it all up ‘gainst a dandelion tree
Gonna whittle you into kindlin’(9)
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
Whittle you into kindlin’
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
Now, I slept in the holler of a dry creek bed
And I tore out the buckets from a red Corvette(10)
Tore out the buckets(11) from a red Corvette
Lionel and Dave, Butcher made three
Meet me by the knuckles of the skinnybone tree
With the strings of a Washburn(12) like a clothes line
Now, me and that mule, right through the hole
Me and that mule, right through the hole
Whittle you into kindlin’
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
Whittle you into kindlin’
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
I will whittle you into kindlin’
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
Whittle you into kindlin’
Sixteen shells from a thirty-ought six
Gonna take a
38 hours long gone train
I just
Long gone train
Just long gone train
I just long
I just long
I just long
Long
Heh-heh. Good evening!
