AmG
Well, the rain was a-falling and the ground turned to mud
AmD
I was watching all the people running from the flood
AmG
So I started to prayin' though I ain't no prayin' man
EmAmEmAm
For the Lord to come a helpin' knowing he'd understand.
Chorus:
GD/F#Em
Deliver your children to the good good life
CG/BAm
Give 'em peace and shelter and a fork and knife
GD/F#Em
Shine a light in the morning and a light at night
GD/F#EmCG/BAm
And if a thing goes wrong you'd better make it right.

AmG
Well, I had me a woman, she was good and clean
AmD
She spent all day with the washing machine
AmG
But when it came to lovin' she was never around
EmAmEmAm
She was out getting dirty all over town.
CHORUS
DmC
Well, I was low on money and my truck broke down
DmG
I was on my way to the lost and found
DmC
So I took it to a dealer, I said make it run
AmDmAmDm
Well, I ain't got no money, but I got me a gun.
DmC
I said you robbed me before so I'm robbing you back
DmG
And if it don't put you straight it'll put you on the right track
DmC
Well, I ain't no devil and I ain't no saint
AmDmAmDm
But I can tell a dealer by the color of his paint.
Chorus
Solo:
AGADAGEAEAm
Chorus
AmG
If you want good eggs you gotta feed that hen
EmAm
And if you wanna hear some more
EmAm
Well, I'll sing it again.
