^AWell I got a Senator over in Texas, got me a judge down in New Orleans. Bought me a ^DSenator over in Texas and a judge down in New Or^Aleans ummm hummmm ^ESometimes I call the world my oyster, sweetest little deal you’ve ever ^Aseen.

^AWell the one kid’s high on God knows what and the other one smashed the Benz. ^ABetween the bank boys and the lawyers I don’t know where it ends. ^DSometimes I got to wonder about living high on the hog. ^AThere’s times I wish I’d married me a woman instead of buying this fierce old dog. ^ECan’t say the old man didn’t warn me when he’s bringin’ me judgment day ^AAnd one little thing I forgot to remember, there’s a matter of some hell to pay

^AAnd then here comes shifty and his new 150 wants to take me for a ride. ^ASaying hey little mamma how ‘bout a little drama. Why don’t you just hop in inside? ^DSaid I might look like a yokel but I’m high tech mogul with a tiger in my tank ^AI said oh my goodness you’re a real smooth talker I believe I’ll take that drink. ^EBut first thing buddy better cool your jets before you make your play ^AYou gotta feed the kitty and oh yes well there’s a matter of some hell to pay.

^AWell now you got your devil in the details. Got your devil in the cake ^AYou can’t look around most anywhere that the devil ain’t on the take ^DHe’s waiting on down at the end of the aisle he’s a waiting at the pearly gates. ^AI’d say the man’s about everywhere ubiquitous some might say ^ETruth is he’s worn out all us fools ain’t no one left to play ^AHe’s bored, he’s mad, he’s all shook up and there’s gonna be hell to pay.

^AWe’ve dirtied up the waters and pretty much trashed the earth ^AThe butcher and the baker and everybody else has taken it for all its worth. ^DSayin “me oh my it was a big old pie and I sure as hell filled my cup” ^AThat Senator’s a comin on a big white horse and the judge is gonna fix me up ^Ebut if ya complicate this moment it’s time to fight and pray ^ACause now it’s time for the money shot baby times up and there’s hell to pay
