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
Chorus: 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
