Kelsey Waldon - Fixin' It Up, Mama lyrics

When I left Kentucky there was
One thing on my mind
And I knew what you wanted from me
But I never had the time
There was a preacher on the radio
And I wondered if he was right
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?

And there's one thing I remember
When life get's so unkind
Is that a rich boy goes to college
And a poor man holds the line
And now they're taking what they want from me
But I'm seeing the divide
And I keep on singing a song
That never pays me a dime
And I keep on singing a song
That never pays me a dime

But I'm fixin' it up mama
And I'm doin it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out
In my due time
I'm fixin' it up mama and I'm doin it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out
In my due time

You used to tell me that a lady never lies
She lays down straight in the bed she's made
And she never will ask why
She stands on a mountain and
She makes the sacrifice
But there's a doubt in my heart
And a gleam in my eye

But I'm fixin' it up mama
And I'm doin it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out
In my due time
There's a doubt in my heart and
A gleam in my eye but I'm fixing it up mama
And I'm doin it right
