Roger Miller - Big Harlan Taylor Lyrics
(spoken) l once had a sweetheart, the fairest of maidensShe outshined all others that ld known by farI had a friend, big fella, name of big harlan taylorHarlan had a rubber-tyred new shiny carOh the ways of the world, and the wants of a womanIf l figured them all out, twould take many yearsBy the wants of a woman she fell for big harlanL tried but in vain for to take my own lifeSuddenly l had lost all my will to keep livinShed lost her desire to become my young wifeOh the ways of the world, and the wants of a womanIf l figured them all out, twould take many years(spoken) well l wanted revenge, and waylaid for big harlanThen l started wondering, what good would it do?If a rubber-tyred new shiny cars her ambitionThen lll just let her have it, and big harlan tooOh the ways of the world, and the wants of a womanIf l figured them all out, twould take many yearsIf l figured them all out, twould take many years
