[00:00.00]Peculiar Guy - Lee Hazlewood
[00:02.55]Saturday night and trouble is
[00:04.47]Probably the best time of the week
[00:07.85]Most the people come in town
[00:09.35]And they buy enough flour and salt
[00:11.34]To last awhile
[00:12.86]Then they stay and visit some
[00:15.58]Now we got this bench
[00:16.97]That sits out in front of Maude Growdy's store
[00:19.22]And that's where most the men do their
[00:21.50]Sittin' whittlin'
[00:22.91]Spittin' and story tellin'
[00:25.55]And some of the stories they tell
[00:27.41]I'll tell you right now
[00:28.74]Some of 'em are just
[00:30.07]Awful hard to believe
[00:32.09]You take a couple Saturday nights ago
[00:35.03]This man was tellin' us all about
[00:37.25]How he got his first wife
[00:40.89]One night in a card game
[00:43.07]I lucked at a peculiar run
[00:47.82]I won a good team
[00:50.24]A woman called Red and a gun
[00:55.18]I won a valley
[00:57.43]Won a mountain so high
[01:04.49]But a lion lured my mountain
[01:07.11]And a lion is a peculiar guy
[01:13.84]I worked with my team
[01:16.14]And I soon grew as rich as the land
[01:21.11]The woman called Red learned to love me
[01:24.80]As I loved the land
[01:28.38]My valley turned green
[01:30.55]My mountain smiled down from the sky
[01:37.74]But a lion lured my mountain
[01:40.28]And a lion is a peculiar guy
[01:47.48]One morning the lion came down
[01:51.02]From his kingdom I owned
[01:54.83]He killed the woman called Red
[01:58.23]And he left me alone
[02:02.03]My valley turned brown
[02:04.47]My mountain didn't seem so high
[02:11.32]'Cause a lion lured my mountain
[02:14.26]And a lion is a peculiar guy
[02:21.29]I climbed up my mountain
[02:23.71]And burried the woman called Red
[02:28.62]I emptied my gun
[02:30.80]In the lion until he laid dead
[02:35.89]I left my valley
[02:38.30]I left my mountain so high
[02:45.45]I can't live with mem'ries
[02:48.27]'Cause I'm a peculiar guy
