I nearly wrote my will

But I changed my mind for the better,

I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill
Chorus

just grab your hat, and take that ride
Get yourself a bride,
and bring your children down to the river side.

Pinball machine, and a queen,
i nearly took a bust
Tried to keep my hands to myself,
ya say it's a must, but who can ya trust?

Harvest moon shining down from the sky,
a weary sign for all
I'm gonna leave this one horse town,
had to stall till the fall, now I'm gonna crawl

Now molly dear, don't ya shed a tear
Your time will surely come,
you'll feed your man chicken every Sunday
Now tell me, hon, whatcha done with the gun?

just grab your hat, and take that ride
Get yourself a bride,
and bring your children down to the river side.
