Dave Rawlings Machine Short Haired Woman Blues Lyrics

Main riff:
INTRO:
VERSE:
Met her on a harvest moon, once upon a time in the mid-
west
She told me as we stole away, that she was freer than all the
rest
PRECHORUS:
With her hair cut like a farmboy and her cards so close to her breast
Just how much harm she could do me... No, I never would have guessed
CHORUS:
Don't go chasing wild ponies; they're half crazy and they run
Don't go lovin' short haired women, they're gonna leave you cryin'
after thinking it was all in fun
VERSE:
We came upon a boomer shack; she broke the windows just
because
Later along the railroad track, she laid me down-- that's how she
was
PRECHORUS:
With the first rush of the freight train, there was rain on the high summer corn
"Oh, it's just a game," she told me; I said, "No, I am reborn"
CHORUS:
Don't go chasing wild ponies; they're half crazy when they run
Don't go lovin' short haired women, they're gonna leave you cryin'
after thinking it was all in fun
INTERLUDE:
hmm- mmm, all in
fun
VERSE 3:
As for her whereabouts, I hear she's living in Baton
Rouge
Giving all those Creole men the short-haired woman
blues, ooooooh ooooooooh
OUTRO:
the short-haired woman
blues
Don't go lovin' short haired women, they're gonna leave you cryin'
after thinking it was all in fun
