| 作词 : Walker, Wilkin | |
| Written：Wayne P.Walker/Marijohn Wilkin | |
| Now a country boy named Shorty | |
| and a city boy named Dan | |
| had to prove who could run the fastest | |
| to wed Miss Lucy's hand | |
| Now Dan had all the money | |
| and he also had the looks | |
| But Shorty musta had that something boys | |
| that can't be found in books | |
| Chorus: | |
| 'Cut across Shorty, Shorty, cut across' | |
| That's what Miss Lucy said | |
| 'Cut across Shorty, Shorty, cut across | |
| You know it's you that I wanna wed' | |
| Wait a minute | |
| Now Dan had been in training | |
| about a week before the race | |
| He made up his mind old Shorty | |
| would end in second place | |
| You know Dan with his long legs flying | |
| he left Shorty far behind | |
| Shorty heard him holler out | |
| Miss Lucy that you'll soon be mine | |
| (Chorus) | |
| But Shorty wasn't worried | |
| There was a smile upon his face | |
| 'Cause old Lucy had fixed the race | |
| And just like that old story | |
| about the turtle and the hare, you know that thing | |
| when Danny crossed over the finish line | |
| he found Shorty waiting there | |
| (Chorus) | |
| It's you that I wanna wed, no no | |
| And oh Lord it's you I wanna wed | |
| It's you that I wanna wed |
