(feat. Bonnie Raitt)
Well I got a Senator over in Texas.
Got me a judge down in New Orleans.
Bought me a Senator over in Texas
and a judge down in New Orleans.
Sometimes I call the world my oyster
sweetest little deal youâve ever seen.
Well the one kidâs high on God knows what and
the other one smashed the Benz.
Between the bank boys and the lawyers
I donât know where it ends.
Sometimes I got to wonder about
living high in the hog.
Thereâs times I wish Iâd married me
a woman instead of buying this fierce old dog.
Canât Say the old man didnât warn me
when heâs bringinâ me judgment day
And one little thing I forgot to
remember, thereâs a matter of some hell to pay
And then here comes shifty and his new 150 he
wants to take me for a ride.
Saying hey little mamma how âbout a little drama.
Why donât you just hop in inside?
Said I might look like a yokel
but Iâm high tech mogul with a tiger in my tank
I said oh my goodness youâre a real smooth
talker I believe Iâll take that drink.
But first thing buddy better cool your jets
before you make your play
You gotta feed the kitty and oh yes
well thereâs a matter of some hell to pay.
Well now you got your devil in the details.
Got your devil in the cake
You canât look around most anywhere
that the devil ainât on the take
Heâs waiting on down at the end of the isle
heâs a waiting at the pearly gates.
Iâd say the manâs about everywhere
ubiquitous some might say
Truth is heâs worn out all us fools
ainât no one left to play
Heâs bored, heâs mad, heâs all shook up
and thereâs gonna be hell to pay.
Well weâve dirtied up the waters
we pretty much trashed the earth
The butcher and the baker and everybody else
has taken it for all its worth.
Sayin âme oh my it was a big old pie
and I sure as hell filled my cupâ
That Senatorâs a comin on a big white horse
and the judge is gonna fix me up
but if ya complicate this moment
itâs time to fight and pray
Cause now itâs time for the money shot baby
times up and thereâs hell to pay
