Gary Morris - Moosechin Stew lyrics

rate me

(Gary Morris - Victoria Shaw - Jana Stanfield)

In a bar in old Montana a rumor circled 'round

How the men went up on the mountain and they never came back down

Tell me why don't they come back, could it be that they lose their will

I have to solve this mystery, had to find out for myself.

So I headed up on the mountain, the trail was deep and long

When I saw her in the shadows, I heard her siren song

She said, "I'm glad you made it, I've been waitin' here just for you.

You look so hungry won't you have some stew?"

Chorus:

Well, it was two parts passion

And a pound of gold

Just enough hope to save your soul

A dash of trust and pure desire

A burnin' ash and a red hot fire

Velvet blood, turtle dove, purple lace, just for taste

Something borrowed and something blue

And the chin of a moose, she called it moosechin stew.

Well, her smile became a rainbow after summer rain

She held me close and whispered, "Darlin' aren't you glad you came?"

Then I knew it was over I had finally learned the truth

There's no resisting what she called moosechin stew.

Chorus:

Well, it was two parts passion

And a pound of gold

Just enough hope to save your soul

A dash of trust and pure desire

A burnin' ash and a red hot fire

Velvet blood, turtle dove, purple lace just for taste

Something borrowed and something blue

And the chin of a moose, she called it moosechin stew.

There's a little witch in every woman

She's free to cast a spell

She'll tempt you with what she got from heaven

And make you feel like hell

Tell me why do they do it

Well, it's a womanly thing to do

Every woman since the first of time

Has her own kind of brew.

Chorus:

Well, it's two parts passion and a pound of gold

Just enough hope to save your soul

A dash of trust and pure desire

Burnin' ash and a red hot fire

Velvet blood, turtle dove, purple lace just for taste

Something borrowed and something blue

And the chin of a moose it's called moosechin stew...
