big harlan taylor

Lyrics

oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman, if i figured them all out 'twould take many years, i once had a sweetheart, the fairest of maidens, she outshined all others that i'd known by far, i had a friend, a big fella, named big harlan taylor, harlan had a rubber-tired, new shiny car, oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman, if i figured them all out 'twould take many years, by the wants of a woman she fell for big harlan, i tried, but in vain, for to take my own life, suddenly i had lost all my will to keep livin', she lost her desire to become my young wife, oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman, if i figured them all out 'twould take many years, i wanted revenge and waylaid for big harlan, then i started wondrin' what good would it do, if a rubber-tired, new shiny car's her ambition, then she can just have it and big harlan, too, oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman, if i figured them all out 'twould take many years, if i figured them all out it would take many years.
