Wellthe 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
WellI 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
WellI 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
WellI 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
WellI 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
WellI'll sing it again
