here 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

yep yey





i am an honest man when i ain't 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 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 as clean as a hounds tooth

i still love the woman of my youth

the lord on my behalf doth pray

he's with me even in harm's way
