Run Him to the Round House Nellie (You Might Corner Him There) Songtext
von Buck Owens and His Buckaroos

Well, run him to the round house Nellie
You might corner him there
If you can get him in the round house Nellie
He ain′t got a plan
He's slick and quick and just as tricky
His old slurf foot prepare
Run him to the round house Nellie
And you might corner him there

Well, Nellie was a hottie and a wholesome girl
With the look of a summer rose
Willie was a big old strapping lad
That lived just down the road
Nellie loves Willie but Willie thought
Nellie was a silly-boy crazy girl
And every time she′ll wink her eye
He'd lad out for the hills


So, run him to the round house Nellie
You might corner him there
If you can get him in the round house Nellie
He ain't got a plan
He′s slick and quick and just as tricky
His old slurf foot prepare
Run him to the round house Nellie
And you might corner him there

Well, Nellie been a-chesing Willie
Since they were five years old
Across the yard into the farm
Around and around they′d go
Up the hills and down the valley
A-running for his life
And if Willie don't watch his P′s and Q's
He′s gonna wind up with a wife

So, run him to the round house Nellie
You might corner him there
If you can get him in the round house Nellie
He ain't got a plan
He′s slick and quick and just as tricky
His old slurf foot prepare
Run him to the round house Nellie
And you might corner him there

Run him to the round house Nellie
And you might corner him there
