Lyrics for Song: The Lumberjacks Had a Lady
Lyrics for Album: L.A. Sessions [MCA] [1976]



(Denice & Christopher Crockett)



The lumberjacks were sittin' in the moonlight

When she stepped from the whisperin' pines

A vision of a lady in a black satin gown

With a fiery look in her eyes

She told them not to ask where she came from

As she slipped off her shawl by the fire

She said, "I wonder if you gentlemen

Could keep me for the night."

And when she smiled the flames grew higher.



The lumberjacks had a lady

She was wild as the night in the woods

The lumberjacks had a lady

And they never ever had it so good.



They took her to a shack in the shadows

And they watched her as she put on the light

She had a look in her eyes that made men realize

The things they were thinkin' were right

As the moon grew dim the first snuck in

With a bottle and a kerosene lamp

Before the break of the day they all knew the way

From their cabin to the lady in the shack.



The lumberjacks had a lady

She was wild as the night in the woods

The lumberjacks had a lady

And they never ever had it so good.



I know they light the logs at night

And talk about her

Some say she was a spirit of the fire

And some of them say she was just a runaway

But as they talk the flames grow higher.



The lumberjacks had a lady

She was wild as the night in the woods

The lumberjacks had a lady

And they never ever had it so good...
