Don't Cuss The Fiddle
by Waylon Jennings

[ Waylon & Willie ]
I scandalized my brother while admitting that he sang some
pretty songs
I'd heard that he'd been scandalizing me and Lord I knew
that that was wrong
Now I'm looking at it over somethin' cool and feeling fool
enough to see
What I had called my brother on now he had every right to
call on me
Don't ever cuss that fiddle boy unless you want that fiddle
out of tune
That picker there in trouble boy ain't nothin' but another
side of you
If we ever get to heaven boys it ain't because we ain't done
nothin' wrong
We're in this gig together so let's settle down and steal
each other's song

I found a wounded brother drinkin' bitterly away the
afternoon
And soon enough he turned one me like he'd done every face
in that saloon
Well we cussed him to the ground and said he couldn't even
steal a decent song
But soon as it was spoken we was sad enough to wish that we
were wrong
Don't ever cuss that fiddle...
I know that it sounds silly but I think that I just stole
somebody's song
She's a good timin' woman in love with a good timin'
man
And she loves him inspite of the ways that she don't
understand
