the queerest critter - vera johnson lyrics
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
harpoon harry roams the seas
slaughtering the whales
wonders why there are so few
in the oceans where he sails
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
seiner sammy looks for fish
brings his catch to shore
takes the most that he’s allowed
grumbles ’cause he can’t get more
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
hal the hunter likes to shoot
ducks and geese and deer
says the hunting’s not so good
hopes there will be more next year
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
logger louis fells the trees
sends them to the mill
cannot understand why floods
washed out each denuded hill
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
moe the miner strips the hill
claws out earth and clay
rips the ground to get the coal
he says that’s the price you pay
what is the queerest critter of all?
man is the queerest i recall
never sees the handwriting on the wall
’til his back is up against it
