Dad used to own the hardware store
But now it and him ain’t around no more
Don’t know the whole story but I’ve overheard some
I know he’s who I got my drinking from
Jesus can you save me
From going crazy
I need some help getting out of this town
Are there any answers
Up in the hereafter
Oh if you got something won’t you send it on down
While I’m still able to be found
Guys around here want a girl who’s rich
Even if I was I wouldn’t be no catch
But this ain’t where I’ll be settling down
I wanna be gone when the fall rolls around
Sitting in the bleachers at the football field
Got a pretty good buzz from a quart I just killed
it’s a cold Sunday morning and the church bells ring
I can just about hear all the good folks sing
Oh if you got something won’t you send it on down
While I’m still able to be found
