Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Well, the rain was a-falling and the ground turned to mud

 I was watching all the people running from the flood

 So I started to prayin' 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 came 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 color 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.
