joe dassin - high sheriff lyrics

Loading...

it was said of the sheriff to calhoun parish
not to ever touch his daughter hanna_lee
for to look at her with l_stful eyes was certain
to get you a time in the penitentiary

it was true, she was quite hilarious
it was true, she had eyes for me;
then one night at a dance she walked up to me
and ask me would i, please, meet her down by the creek…

as i listened to her dangerous proposal
i thought about the high sheriff catching me;
as i shook my head quietly and lеft the party
i heard her laugh and say “you’ll bе sorry”
then came upon my door a loud disturbance
i opened it to the sheriff and his deputy
he said, “son, did you molest my daughter?”
i said, “sheriff, i do not know of what you speak.”

then he grabbed me roughly by the collar
and he flung me sprawling out into the street;
there were days in the jail with claustrophobia
and all on that kind of a b_tch hanna_lee…

when i finally worked a bar loose from my window
and i made my way into the woods of calhoun
late at night i came upon the cabin;
it was the home of jaime cross, a friend i knew

would you mind if i sat down at your table
’cause it’s been a while since i’ve had time to eat
and i’ll pay y’all back when i’m able
but right now the high sheriff is after me
