[J.J. Cale, Eric Clapton - Last Will and Testament lyrics]

Well I met this old woman
She was hard as nails
I think she'd just come out
Of the county jail
But, I loaned her some money
Just to pay her rent if I would
She would put me in her
Last will and testament

Well I got lots of children
An ex-wife or two
I never hear from them till the bills are due
The money I gave 'em, they already spent
If I could just slip 'em out
You put me in the last will and testament

You know I'm going over sixty
I'm older than most it won't be long now
I'll be nothing but a ghost
My intentions, it's my intent
To leave all of them people out
Of my last will and testament

And when it's all over
They put you in the ground
Send my belongings to the lost and found
My intention, it's my intent
To leave all of them people out
Of my last will and testament

Hey hey hey hey
