Jim Reeves - Ichabot Crane - Текст песни

I'll tell you a story of a love and his flame you've read about him he's Ichabot Crane

He went a courtin' one night on his horse and Sleepy Hollow they both had to cross

While ridin' and thinkin' bout the girl he would wed

It was there that old Ichabot lost his head

Across Sleepy Hollow a horseman did follow and follow and follow poor Ichabot Crane

Don't want to end up like Ichabot Crane who lost his head and went up in the flame

Sleepy Hollow I'm gonna evade that was the mistake that poor Ichabot made

I'm a losin' my head and startin' to burn ain't any too smart but I'm willin' to learn

You can't talk me in to a staying out late that was poor Ichabot's biggest mistake

Across Sleepy Hollow a horseman did follow and follow and follow poor Ichabot Crane

[ guitar ]

In the legend of Sleepy Hollow tis said the horseman had a pumpkin for a head

My head may be sore and I may not be bright

Just one more little kiss and that's all for tonight

I'm afraid that your kisses will drive me insane and I'll end up like Ichabot Crane

I'm a headin' right home and a jumpin' in bed

That's the best way I know to hang on to my head

Across Sleepy Hollow your mem'ry will follow and follow and follow this Ichabot Crane
