Well, the rain was a-failin'
|
And the ground turned to mud
|
I was watching all the people
|
Running from the flood
|
So i started to pray
|
Though i ain't no prayin' man
|
For the lord to come a helpin'
|
Knowing he'd understand
|
Deliver your children to the good good life
|
Give'em peace and shelter and a fork and knife
|
Shine a light in the morning and a light at night
|
And if a thing goes wrong you'd better make it right
|
|
Well, i had me a woman
|
She was good and clean
|
She spent all day with the washing machine
|
But when it come to lovin'
|
She was never around
|
She was out getting dirty
|
All over town
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Well, i was low on money
|
And my truck broke down
|
I was on my way to the lost and found
|
So i took it to a dealer
|
I said make it run
|
Well, i ain't got no money
|
But i got me a gun
|
|
I said you robbed me before
|
So i'm robbing you back
|
And if it don't put you straight
|
It'll put you on the right track
|
Well, i ain't no devil and i ain't no saint
|
But i can tell a dealer by the colour of his paint
|
|
Chorus
|
|
If you want good eggs
|
You gotta feed that hen
|
And if you wanna hear some more
|
Well, i'll sing it again
|
