Cripple in the woods aint going the farm Going to the city, girl done me wrong That girl's pretty, pretty as can be But she cut off my legs starting from the knee
chorus: aint gonna marry that girl no more ain't gonna marry that girl ain't gonna marry that girl no more ain't gonna marry that girl
Took me home, made me...(drink?) Cut off my legs, threw'em in the (drain? brink?)...? She thought I was trapped but not for long Made a wheelchair and I was gone
chorus
Cripple in the woods aint going to thefarm Going to the city, girl done me wrong Girl she wanted to be my bride My feelings for her I couldn't hide
chorus
Got to the woods to my shack To that farm I'll never go back I know she's out there looking for me Gotta stay away from insanity
