| Chorus:
|
| Well, I knowed it, knowed it Indeed I knowed it, sister
|
| I knowed it, knowed it My bones gonna rise again
|
| Me and my gal went down to the lake
|
| (My bones gonna rise again)
|
| We ate hot dogs and chocolate cake
|
| (My bones gonna rise again)
|
| My wife sat down on a big black snake
|
| (My bones gonna rise again)
|
| Lord she never got up, it was too late
|
| (My bones gonna rise again)
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Well I asked my gal to ride with me She got on and sat on my knee
|
| We stayed out that night 'til three
|
| I never will be the same as I used to be
|
| (Chorus)
|
| If you want to get to heaven I’ll tell you what to do Well feed your children on mutton stew
|
| Run right up and kick the devil’s hand
|
| You’ll ride into the promise land
|
| (Chorus x2) |
