Cherokee Fiddle
In the style of
Lyrics
when the train
pulled into
the station
he rolled up
his sleeves
and rosined up
his bow
fiddle upside down
orange blossom
special
'cause if you
wanna make a livin'
you gotta put on
a good show
when he'd smell
smoke and the cinders
slick back his hair
and open up his case
played
cherokee fiddle
just played
for the whiskey
'cause good whiskey
never let him
lose his place
he was always there
playin' for the miners
devil's dream
was a song
they understood
then he'd go back
to oklahoma
and he'd wait
till the train
was runnin'
and the weather
was good
but when he'd smell
smoke and the cinders
he'd slick back
his hair
and open up his case
played
cherokee fiddle
just played
for the whiskey
'cause good whiskey
never let him
lose his place
now the indians
are dressin' up
like cowboys
and the cowboys
are puttin'
leather and
turquoise on
and the music
is sold by lawyers
and the fools
who fiddled
in the middle
of the station
are gone
some folks say
they'll never miss him
old fiddles squeal
like the engine brakes
cherokee fiddle
is gone forever
just like the music
of the whistle
that the old
locomotive made
so when you smell
smoke and the cinders
just slick back
your hair
and open up
your case
play
cherokee fiddle
just play it
for the whiskey
'cause good whiskey
never lets you
lose your place
no good whiskey
never lets you
lose your place
no good whiskey
never lets you
lose your place
