Cut Across Shorty Lyrics
A country boy named Shorty and a city boy named DanHad to prove who could run the fastest to win Miss Lucy's hand
Now Dan had all the money and he also had the looks
But Shorty must-a had something boy that can’t be found in the books
Oh cut across Shorty (Shorty cut across)
Well it's what Miss Lucy said
Cut across Shorty (Shorty cut across)
Well it's you I wanna wed
Now Dan with his long legs flying left Shorty far behind
But Shorty could hear him holler, Miss Lucy you will soon be mine
But Shorty wasn’t worried there was a smile upon his face
Well he knew that he was gonna win 'cause Miss Lucy had fixed the race
Now Dan had been in training weeks before the race
And he was sure that Shorty would end up second place
But just like that old story about the turtle and the hare
When Dan crossed the finish line well he found little Shorty there
