Oscar Hummel Lyrics & Tabs by Richard Buckner
Oscar Hummel
guitar chords lyrics
I staggered on through darkness,
There was a hazy sky, a few stars
Which I followed as best I could.
It was nine o'clock, I was trying to get home.
But somehow I was lost,
Though really keeping the road.
Then I reeled through a gate and into a yard,
And called at the top of my voice:
"Oh, Fiddler! Oh, Mr. Jones!"
I thought it was his house and he would show me the way home.
But who should step out but A. D. Blood,
In his night shirt, waving a stick of wood
And roaring about the cursed saloons,
And the criminals they made?
"You drunken Oscar Hummel", he said,
And roaring about the cursed saloons,
And the criminals they made?
"You drunken Oscar Hummel", he said,
As I stood there weaving to and fro,
Taking the blows from the stick in his hand
Till I dropped down dead at his feet.
