Butcher Pete - Part 1 - Roy Brown

Hey everybody, did the news get around

About a guy named Butcher Pete

Oh, Pete just flew into this town

And he’s choppin' up all the women’s meat

He’s hackin' and wackin' and smackin'

He’s hackin' and wackin' and smackin'

He’s hackin' and wackin' and smackin'

He just hacks, wacks, choppin' that meat

Butcher Pete’s got a long sharp knife

He starts choppin' and don’t know when to stop

All you fellows gotta watch your wifes

'Cause Pete don’t care who’s meat he chops

Ever since Peter flew into town

He’s been havin' a ball

Just cuttin' and choppin' for miles around

Single women, married women, old maids and all

Wakes up in the morning, half past five

Chops from sunrise to sunset

I don’t see how he stays alive

Meat’s gonna be the death of ole Pete, yeah

The police put Pete in jail

Yes, he finally met his faith

But when they came to pay his bail

They found him choppin' up his cell mate

That Butcher Pete is a crazy man

Tries to chop down the wind and the rain

Just hacks on anything he can get

Say, turn this record over, you ain’t heard nothing yet
