Tim Blake Nelson Little Joe The Wrangler Surly Joe Lyrics

(The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs Soundtrack)

Surly Joe the gambler
He will gamble never more
His days of stud and hold'em, they are done
It was long about last April
He stepped into this saloon
But he never really took to anyone

Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Oh wherever he's damned and now
I don't know
(We don't know)
He was slick but I was slicker
He drew quick but I was quicker
And the table stopped his ticker, Surly Joe
Yee-haw!

Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Won't be missed by anyone will Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Humankind he frown upon
But not now, his face is gone
Guess your frowning days are done
Oh, Surly Joe
(Yee-haw)

Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
A cedilla on the C of Curly Joe
(Surly Joe)
He was mean in days of yore
Now they're moping up the floor
[Inaudible]
Oh, Surly Joe
Yee-haw

Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Surly Joe
(Surly Joe)
Where the rest his face has got to
We don't know
(We don't know)
He was never any fun
Now his grumpy race has run
Kisser blown to kingdom come
Oh, Surly Joe
(Yee-haw)
