The Hot Club of Cowtown - Chip Away the Stone Lyrics

You act like a prima donna,
Playing so hard to get.
Sittin' so cool and nonchalant,
Draggin' on a cigarette.
You keep a wall all around ya.
I'll get through some day.
I want your love, baby,
Push, don't shove
Gonna chip that stone away.

Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm gonna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.

You stand like a marble statue,
Trying to look so hard.
All decked out in your antique dress,
While the boys all promenade.
Even a rock will crumble,
If you strike it night and day.
If hammer I must, I'm gonna get through your crust.
Gonna chip that stone away.

Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm gonna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.

Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
Honey, I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm wanna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.

Yes I do, yes I do.

Chip away, chip away, at the stone.
Chip away, chip away, at the stone.

I won't stop.
I won't stop.
I won't stop.
I won't stop.
I won't stop.
I won't stop.

Chip it.
I'm gonna nip it, all night long.
