Rooster Hill

3
Last saturday night on rooster hill
4
I lost 4 one hundred dollar bills
5
came home with my champion cock cut all to pieces
6
some home made shine made my vision blur
7
and I carelessly tied up a pair of spurs
8
last saturday night on rooster hill
9
I pick Cortez up off the ground
10
neck was floppin' he wasn't makin' a sound
11
left leg was missing and he was barely breathin'
12
I dropped him down in paper sack
13
and told old Charlie I'd be coming back
14
next saturday night on rooster hill
15
so I took Cortez home and laid him in his cage
16
he was up and about in a couple of days
17
hopin' round and crowing loud revenge
18
I feed him steak the rest of the week
19
he'd just rip it apart with his angry beak
20
got to snapin' the cage wired like a pair of pliers
21
look out cortez is coming back
22
and he wont be in no paper sack
23
he's healed and he's fired up
24
for rooster hill
25
well saturday night rolled around again
26
and i tucked cortez into his portable pin
27
and we headed on up to check out the secluded hill
28
when we arrived the bones was already rollin
29
and you could hear Charlie's big bad gray a crowing
30
and sure enough it's saturday night on rooster hill
31
we scaled them up and Cortez was light
32
and I said that's alright let old one leg fight
33
and Charlie gave three to one odds one his big bad gray
34
we faced them off and Cortez knew
35
he was looking at the bird that spurred and chewed him half away last week
36
on rooster hill
37
we set 'em down to let 'em scratch
38
and it took all I had to hold Cortez back
39
he dug a hole deep enough to bury the big gray
40
Charlie look at me and said a grand to five
41
I said Charlie you're on let them feathers fly
42
It's saturday night
43
on rooster hill
44
look out cortez is coming back
45
and he wont be in no paper sack
46
he's healed and he's fired up
47
for rooster hill
48
Earl gives a count and hollers pit
49
and cortez flies up to make one fatale hit
50
and Charlie kicks his big bad gray in the gully
51
he slowly peels off ten big bills
52
and I say Charlie old buddy I know how it feels
53
this aint my first trip to rooster hill
54
It's sunday morning back here on the farm
55
things are quiet except around the barn
56
it's sunrise and I'm cookin' Cortez a t-bone
57
all the bars are closed and the only action
58
is my champion cock crowing satisfaction
59
and me a count' my take...
60
on Rooster hill
