George is in the jungle
Knockin' on the door
Come to get your children
Wants to have a warCome on
Lord, you better run
Be a long dark night
Before this thing is doneBrownie's in the outhouse
Katrina on the line
Governments a disaster
But George, he says it's fineCome on
Lord, you better run
Be a long dark night
Before this thing is doneRummy's in the kitchen
Messin' with the pan
Dickie's in the back
Stealin' everything he canCome on
Lord, you better run
Be a long dark night
Before this thing is doneYou better run
You better run
Lord, you better run
You better runRunnin' down the highway
Shoutin' to the Lord
George's got religion
And you know he can't afford more, yeahLord, you better run
Be a long dark night
Before this thing is doneBe a long dark night
Before this thing is done
Oh Lord
