THE FROZEN LOGGER

    As I sat down one evening,
    'Twas in a small cafe,
    A forty year old waitress
    To me these words did say:

    I see that you're a logger,
    And not a common bum,
    For no one but a logger
    Stirs coffee with his thumb.
    I once had a logger lover,
    There's none like him today.
    If you poured whisky on it,
    He'd eat a bale of hay.
    He never shaved a whisker
    Off of his horny hide;
    He hammered in the bristles,
    And bit them off inside.
    My logger came to see me,
    'Twas on a winter's day;
    He held me in a fond embrace
    That broke three vertebrae.
    He kissed me when we parted
    So hard it broke my jaw;
    I couldn't speak to tell him
    He forgot his mackinaw.
    I saw my logger lover
    Go stridin' through the snow,
    A-goin' gaily homeward
    At forty-eight below.
    The weather tried to freeze him,
    It did its very best;
    At a hundred degrees below zero,
    He buttoned up his vest.
    It froze clear down to China,
    It froze to the stars above;
    At a thousand degrees below zero,
    It froze my logger love.
    They tried in vain to thaw him,
    And if you believe it sir,
    They made him into axe blades
    To cut the Douglas Fir.
    And so I lost my logger,
    And to this cafe I've come,
    And it's here I wait for someone
    To stir coffee with his thumb.
