Straight-mouth Stomp Lyrics - 16 Horsepower

Oh come sit down and give me your word 

That I'll be a man someday and I'll hurt 

These children around me this boy that I am 

It's up here for thinkin' and down there for dancin' 

Not the other way around 

Apples in the summertime 

Peaches in the fall 

I can't keep the girl I got 

I can't keep none at all 

Nobody knows how I can swing that sway 

How I can creep from the narrow 

To the broader way 

But I'll do no more talkin' 

I'm goin' to town 

With my true love's breath upon my neck 

And my hands on velvet ground 

Apples in the summertime 

Peaches in the fall 

I can't keep the girl, I got 

I can't keep none at all
