Old Crow Medicine Show - Sewanee Mountain Catfight Lyrics

Step right up, boys, right this way
Down to the Sewanee Mountain hideaway
All the girls lined up would spit in their eyes
Kickin' and a-scratchin' for a Tennessee prize
Gather 'round, boys and place your bets
On which one a these cats can scratch the best
All you gals, want a good clean fight,
Sewanee Mountain Catfight's here tonight

Sewanee Mountain Catfight, dollar and a dime
Girls gone wild on the Tennessee line
Got her by the hair, another by the neck
Teeth go flyin' in a roadside shack

Well, the first thing you know, ol' Jump-Up Joe
Took 12:1 win, place or show
she was lookin' to kill
straight from the holler on Hill
Then the whistle blew and Betty-Lou
Took a hankie in his hair and away she flew
Slapped her on the fanny then she flipped her gown
Racked up four points in the very first round

Sewanee Mountain Catfight, dollar and a dime
Girls gone wild on the Tennessee line
Got her by the hair, another by the neck
Teeth go flyin' in a roadside shack

Yeah, the girls was hot and the beer was cold
Just about then them blue lights rolled
They busted in through the kitchen door
And the sheriff pulled out a .44
Hey, Sheriff, bring that Betty Lou
She oughta bring that hothead home to you
The sheriff payed his $1.10
Said, "Girls, start up that fight again!"

Sewanee Mountain Catfight, dollar and a dime
Girls gone wild on the Tennessee line
Got her by the hair, another by the neck
Teeth go flyin' in a roadside shack

Step right up, boys
C'mon, now, lay your money down
Alright, girls, now make it clean
We don't want no blows below the pantyline
c'mon now
