Big Boat
02:47

well that Mississippi river
running long deep and wide
I gotta see my baby she's standing on the other side
well I cry and I call
I couldn't make my baby hear
I gotta get me a boat and travel on away from here
and it's hard when you love someone
man she's so far from you
I've gotta get a boat and settle these old river blues
I went down down to that landing
see a landing boat over there
well the fat man he told me
won't find no boat no where
well my baby she left me this morning
she went down that river 'lone
well the fat man he told me
she jumped on the boat alone
well that big boat ease up the river
man it's turning round and round
if I don't find my baby
I'll jump over boat and drown

Before They Get Me Down

200 feet down
5 miles in
rather sell my soul
live in sin
deep in wine
before they get me down
jam it 6 foot low
keep the ground above
no one understands
'cept the one I love
deep in wine
hangin from the sky
before they get me down
56 degrees
65 a year
come on don't scare me
my mind I fear
deep in wine
hangin from the sky
fish on the fishin
before they get me down

well I went to a bar last night
I was dressed to kill
when they found who I was dancing with
they laughin up loud as hell
it was the wrong woman (x2)
it was the wrong woman I was out with last night
looked at her face
looked down at her feet
said she was built like an automobile
didn't have no drama see
it was the wrong woman (x2)
it was the wrong woman I was out with last night
I took her home with me
I got in the bed
when she went to take off her clothes
she said daddy cover up your head
it was the wrong woman (x2)
it was the wrong woman I was out with last night
well I got me a bottle of booze
wanna drink it all by myself
when I turned up to my head
here comes somebody else
it was the wrong woman (x2)
it was the wrong woman I was out with last night
well I went down to the place
I knocked up on the door
when I see you come to that door
I'll never go there no more
it was the wrong woman (x2)
it was the wrong woman I was out with last night

Walkin' In The Rain
03:25
|

|
I left late last night
from an established man
I couldn't see too far
that it was there
I made it home
but I don't know how
walkin
in the rain
I left my ride
down at the bar
you know I had to go
not very far
That was the day
she took my heart away
walkin
in the rain
we're flying South
of infidelity
take me to a place
I'd rather be
I hear the thunder
I see the clouds
walkin
in the rain

well I come home last night
I'm as tired as a man can be
I see another coat on my hanger
where my coats supposed to be
said wake up baby

now whose coat's on my hanger
where my coat's supposed to be
she said "daddy you talk so funny"
why don't you open up your eyes and see
that ain't nothin but a big old blanket
that my mama she sewed for me
well I've been on
over the wall
to the girl from Mexico
I ain't never never seen no blanket
with two sleeves around it before
well next I come home
I'm as tired as a man can be
I see another hat on my dresser
where my hat's supposed to be
I said wake up baby
explain all your stuff to me
now whose hat's on my dresser where my hat's supposed to be
she said "daddy you talk so funny"
why don't you open up your eyes and see
that ain't nothin but a big old melon
that the grocer bought for me
well I've been on
over the wall
to the girl from Mexico
I ain't never never seen no melon
with a hat pan round it before
well next time I come home
as drunk as a man can be
I see another mule in my stable
where my mule's supposed to be
I said wake up baby
explain all your stuff to me
now whose mule's in my stable
where my mule's supposed to be
she said "daddy you talk so funny"
why don't you open up your eyes and see
that ain't nothin but a big old milk cow
that the dairy man bought for me
well I've been on
over the wall
to the girl from Mexico
I ain't never never seen no milk cow
with a saddle on the back before

say if I had my way (x3)
I would tear this whole building down
well Delilah she was woman
fine and fair
she had good look I know
and cold black hair
Delilah she came up on Samson boy
first he saw this woman strut down in his town
well Delilah she sat down on Samson knee
said tell me where you drink now baby if you please
and she spoke so kind god no thought so fair
Samson said Delilah you cut off my hair
you shaved my head clean as my hand
I drank all natural as any old man
if I had my way
if I had my way (x3)
I would tear this whole building down
well you read about how Samson
he spoke from his will
he was the strongest man that ever have lived on
well one day Samson came walkin along
reached down on the ground
he called no job down
when he stretched out his arm god no it broke like thread
when it got to movin ten thousand went dead
if I had my way (x3)
I would tear this whole building down
well old Samson and Delilah they got in attack
Samson he crawled up on lion back
he rebuilt his line killed a man with his paw
Samson got his hand wrapped up around that lion jaw
then he ripped that piece god knows he killed him dead
bees made honey in the lion's head
if I had my way (x3)
I would tear this whole building down

skippin and floppin on the belly side
catfish cookin on the highway
wrappin the kill up in aluminum
fifteen miles on the manifold
then it's done
wrappin my center
takin back control
sweet corn cookin on the highway
wrappin the kill up in aluminum
fifteen miles on the manifold
and it's done
holdin it down with a painted wand
supper's cookin on the highway
wrappin the kill up in aluminum
fifteen miles on the manifold
then it's done
follow the sun over to the end
golf it will take me into midnight
wrappin the kill up in aluminum
fifteen miles on the manifold
then it's done
