now a country boy named Shorty
3

5
to wed Miss Lucy's hand
6
now Dan had all the money
7
and he also had the looks
8
but Shorty musta had that something boys
9
that can't be found in books
10

11
that's what Miss Lucy said
12
cut across Shorty, Shorty, cut across
13
you know it's you that I wanna wed
14
wait a minute
15
now Dan had been in training
16
about a week before the race
17
he made up his mind old Shorty
18
would end in second place
19
you know Dan with his long legs flying
20
he left Shorty far behind
21
Shorty heard him holler out
22
Miss Lucy that you'll soon be mine

cut across Shorty ... but Shorty wasn't worried
24
there was a smile upon his face
25
'cause old Lucy had fixed the race
26
and just like that old story
27
about the turtle and the hare
28
you know that thing
29
when Danny crossed over the finish line
30
he found Shorty waiting there
31
cut across Shorty ...
32
it's you that I wanna wed, no no
33
and oh Lord it's you I wanna wed
34
it's you that I wanna wed
