Blue Cheer - Lester the Arrester lyrics



(Ralph Burns Kellogg)

When Lester was a little bitty baby

Mama told him, "son,

Never be kind to strangers

And always carry a gun."

And Lester vowed to make her proud

Until the day he died

He had her name tattooed on his arm

To show the world his pride.

Lester the Arrester

Riding in the sky

Lester the Arrester

Will you never die

Late at night when the moon is bright

The same old ghost goes riding by.

Lester always loved his work, no Lester wasn't soft

He loved upholding law so much he never took time off

Late one night he got a call to go to the edge of town

A prowler was reported off of the graveyard on the shroud.

Lester the Arrester

Found the Devil in disguise

The Devil said to Lester,

"You can take your prize

I've watched you for quite some time

And I'm sure you're my kind of man."

The Devil turned to Lester in a greasy cloud of smoke

He laughed out loud and

Oh, what fun it was to play this kind of joke (HA HA HA HA)

Lester became immortal and more famous than most

He rides the sky forever as a legend

There he goes.

Lester the Arrester

Riding in the sky

Lester the Arrester

Will you never die

Late at night when the moon is bright

The same old ghost goes riding by.

Oh, Lester (by-by-by-by-by) the Arrester

He's the legendary law, He's the legendary law

Lester the Arrester goes riding by

The ghost of Lester ain't a-never, never, never, never

Ever, ever gonna die, die, die

Oooohh Right!
