Trapper Schoepp - Ballad of Olof Johnson lyrics

[Verse 1] At the turn of the last century in the heart Of harding county A swedish immigrant by way of Chicago Had to go! Had to go! Had to go! You came late in the fall With tallest wagon Cool home If there's cold wind against his cheek If below zero by the end of the road It took a good long look around,then Dug deep in the ground You flipped his wagon upside down Over a hole nowhere near the Nearest town [Chorus] The wind went oooohhhhhhh All night He cried ohhhhhhhhh in fright [Verse 2] No candle flame could keep him warm But he had shelter from the storm After seven long days Yeah thought about live on we might as well stay He couldn't feel with his fingertips He couldn't lick his dried-out lips He dreamt about flowers and gla**es of beer Then wake up screaming then wake up screaming with No one could hear [Chorus] The wind went oooohhhhhhh All night He cried ohhhhhhhhh in fright In fright [Verse 3] He spent 2 months hunkered down Like some fox that'd been chased by a hound He came up and he didn't make a sound And he run he run and he never was found [Chorus] The wind went oooohhhhhhh All night He cried ohhhhhhhhh in fright In fright The wind went oooohhhhhhh All night He cried ohhhhhhhhh in fright In fright It sounds right
