Lyrics
Esther Be The One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Esther be the one that shoots a machine gun
Whether you like it or not.
Midnight or daylight, stay out of her sight
'Cuz I heard she's one heck of a shot.
Esther be the one, she's the only one.
She'll get you with her gun when the wolf starts howlin' at the moon.
And you will feel her love bullets when you look her in the eyes.
There ain't no way to escape.
And that's when her fever will materialize,
But it ain't no unfortunate fate.
Esther be the one, she's the only one.
She'll get you with her gun when the wolf starts howlin' at the moon.
If she gets you in a corner, don't let her mess you 'round
And don't let her blow you away.
If you can't dig on Esther, you turn and leave town
'cause if you think she's bad you ought to see her sister.
Esther be the one, but she's not the only one.
She'll get you with her gun when the wolf starts howlin' at the moon.
