The Gourds - Lament lyrics
[The Gourds - Lament lyrics]
A church of Christ and the preacher
Would come over sometimes and he'd always
Hide his beer and his cigarettes
So I wrote a song about it
I could tell you that I was a Christian
And I don't guess that would be a lie
I could tell you that I's church of Christ
And I don't guess you could prove me wrong
So don't trouble no policeman
He's got a wife and kids of his own
And don't trouble your neighbors
'Cause they just want to be left alone
I suppose if I was a demon
I might have bugs all over my legs
And it might make sense for me tangle
With my wife for awhile
So don't trouble no policeman
He's got a wife and kids of his own
And don't trouble your neighbors
'Cause they just want to be left alone
Lord ain't this nation lonely
Lord ain't this nation lonely
Lord ain't this nation lonely
Lord ain't this nation lonely
