lyrics

Praying on what goes down, must come up

Don't ever have to want for the things I need
Aint never gonna die I’ll just go to seed
Praying on what goes down, must come up 2x

Red clay stains won't never come clean
This years flush & the next is lean
Praying on what goes down, must come up 2x

Mamma sings a story swinging on the porch
Daddy strums the fiddle and we dance for nickels
Bet each other run through rows in the dark
But no one ever had the nerve

No three piece suit it’s the ground I toil
Only way to get rich is if I strike oil
Praying on what goes down, must come up 2x

SOLO

Hauling fodder into town down Old Plank Road
Feet hanging over seeing bunnies in the clouds
Dared each other ring old Hobie Mett’s bell
but no one ever had the nerve
 
The kingdom come silks turned brown
Looked all my life but never saw no crown
Praying on what goes down, must come up 2x

Don't ever have to want for the things I need
Aint never gonna die just go to seed
Praying on what goes down, must come up 2x
