When I Win The Lottery |
Well I lost an eye in mexico |
Lost two teeth where I dont know |
People see me comin and they move to the other side of the road |
I robbed a liquor store or two |
Made myself at home a few times |
Borrowed myself a car when I needed it I got me a shack at the bottom of the road |
Fixin cars and givin tows |
Spend all my money on the lottery |
When I win the lottery gonna buy all girls on my block |
A color tv and a bottle of french perfume |
When I win the lottery gonna donate half my money to the city |
So they have to name a street or a school or a park after me When I win the lottery |
Never run a flag up a pole |
Like mr. |
red, white, and blue down the road |
But I never called myself a hero for killing a known communist |
Now I can walk into any old bar |
Find a fight without looking too hard |
But I never killed someone I dont know just cause someone told me to And when I win the lottery |
Gonna buy the house next to mr. |
red, white and blue |
And when I win the lottery |
Gonna buy post 306 american legion, paint it red with five gold stars |
When I win the lottery |
When the end comes to this old world |
The rights will cry and the rest will curl up And God wont take the time to sort your ashes from mine |
cause we zig and zag between good and bad |
Stumble and fall on right and wrong |
cause the tumbling dice and the luck of the draw just leads us on And when I win the lottery, gonna buy all the girls on my block |
Silver-plated six shooters and a quart of the finest highland scotch |
cause when I win the lottery, the rights will shake their heads and say that |
God is good but surely works in mysterious ways |
When I win the lottery |
