Just before the old man's eyeballs fixed, |
|
He went pale as an eskimo. |
|
Said, "Young man, ??? but, |
|
Young man before I go, |
|
I'm gonna leave you with a piece of advice, |
|
Don't ever take advice from no one. |
|
It doesn't matter if you're naughty or nice, |
|
You still get a lump of coal. |
|
And if a heart breaks |
|
And nobody's around, |
|
Tell me son, does it still make a sound? |
|
And if a heart breaks |
|
And nobody's around, |
|
Tell me son, does it still make a sound? |
|
You know, when I was your age, |
|
There were these neighbors of mine, |
|
Tried to make the Lord save your mind. |
|
Came knocking on my door one morning around six, |
|
Told them where to stick their crucifix. |
|
Come 30 years later, yes son, |
|
Guess who goes to church like his neighbors do? |
|
I meet some good people there, |
|
Some jackasses too, |
|
Pretty much like the way it is everywhere. |
|
Well, I'm getting that here. |
|
But I'm trying to say, |
|
Son, I'm concerned that you're losing your way. |
|
You keep down that cocky little road you're on, |
|
You're gonna wind up underground alone. |
|
Chorus x3 |
|
Gotta sack away some money in my bottom drawer. |
|
You can split that money with your brother. |
|
Y'all go use that money for whatever you wanna use it for, |
|
Just don't tell your mother." |
