Ah, the wide missouri
Dwellers on the bluff
Across the wide missouri
Never enough
No
Never enough
Whip-poor-will
Whip-poor-will
Scissoring high in the trees
A beating would do me a world of good
Sneakin' by
Sneakin' by
I am down on my knees
A beating would do me a world of good
I took it from saxon
I took it from dad
I took it from fat johnny friendly
From 3 vigilantes
I took if for wild one
And the for my sin
I took it from Elizabeth again and again
Ah, the wide missouri
Dwellers on the bluff
Across the wide missouri
Never enough
No
Never enough
Whip-poor-will
Whip-poor-will
Scissoring high in the trees
A beating would do me a world of good
Sneakin' by
Sneakin' by
I am down on my knees
A beating would do me
A beating would do me
