Just a diddy about a backwoods woman with a bad habit.....
Daisey Mae Hooter was a smalltown girl
She lived all alone from the rest of the world
in a one-room shanty twenty miles from town
didn't want nobody comin' around
The town folk knew not to cross the line
where the oak tree stood and there hung a sign that said,
"Keep away, keep off of my land
my shotgun's bigger than the biggest man"
What's your secret, Daisey Mae?
Why do you have to hide?
It aint right to be alone
with noone else at home
Daisey Mae
On the day she died all the town folk came
to Daisey's place in the pouring rain
In back of the shack they found a moonshine still
Rotgut whiskey out at Daisey's mill
What's your secret, Daisey Mae?
Why do you have to hide?
It aint right to be alone
with noone else at home
Daisey Mae
