utah phillips – the lumberjack’s prayer lyrics
i pray, dear lord, for jesus’ sake
give us this day a t+bone steak
hallowed be thy holy name
but don’t forget to send the same
oh hear my humble cry, o lord
and send us down some decent board
brown gravy with some german fried
with sliced tomatoes on the side
observe me on my bended legs +
i’m asking you for ham and eggs
and if thou havest custard pies
i’d like, dear lord, the largest size
o hear my humble cry, almighty host
i quitе forgot the quail on toast
o let your kindly heart bе stirred
and stuff some oysters in that bird
dear lord, we know thy holy wish
on friday we must have a fish
our flesh is weak and spirits stale
you’d better make that fish a whale
o hear me lord, remove these “dogs”
these sausages of powdered logs
the bull+beef hash and bearded snouts
take them to h+ll, or thereabouts
with alum bread and pressed beef b+tts
dear lord, you’ve d+mn near ruined my guts
your white+wash milk and oleorine
i’d wish to christ i’d never seen
o hear me lord, i’m praying still +
but if you won’t, our union will
put porkchops on the bill of fare
and starve no workers anywhere
