There ain't nothin' that ain't in my way |
|
An' like the fool I am for my own gain I pray |
|
You say you found, a way back inside my closet |
|
Ol' bones upon bones an' joints upon sockets |
|
I am an honest man |
|
When I am not lying |
|
I am a living man |
|
When I commence to dyin' |
|
Bring it down, bring it down on me |
|
Put me on a high horse so everyone can see |
|
Then kick the nag an', an' leave me be |
|
Swingin' from the tree |
|
Listen good people |
|
I'll tell you some truth |
|
I got no reason |
|
To lie to you |
|
I'm was clean as a hounds tooth |
|
I still love the woman of my youth |
|
The Lord on my behalf does pray |
|
Even me, even in harm's way |
