Deliver Your Children 歌词

Well, the rain was a-failing and the ground turned to mud I was watching all the people running from the flood So I started to praying, though I ain't no praying man For the Lord to come-a-helping 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 Well, I had me a woman, she was good and clean She spent all the day with the washing machine But when it come to loving, she was never around She was out getting dirty all over town 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 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 colour of his paint 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 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 If you want good eggs, you gotta feed that hen And if you want to hear some more, well, I'll sing it again
