Lyrics for Song: Get Got
Lyrics for Album: Hope On The Rocks [2012]
Said the old man to the young man
Leanin' on the fence,
Spittin' out his wisdom
That didn't make much sense.
Said I'm bound to give you somethin'
That'll help you in a jam,
Or on the job with a women.
You sit where you can.
When you find yourself in a hole, stop diggin',
Cotton row gets long, keep pickin',
Fish ain't bitin', then son keep fishin',
Always drink upstream from your cattle
Be aware of cars and women
They run cold and hot
Sometimes you get it
Sometimes you get got
When it comes to country livin'
You can't do no wrong
Listen to a front porch prophet
Who's been living twice as long
Precious little gems
From wouldn'ts and I wants
Old man soapbox summons
Simple dos and don'ts
Like
You always catch more bees with honey
Less is more 'cept love and money
Ride in the truck between your buddies
You won't have to get out and open the gate
Tell the truth, it's twice as easy
If you're right or not
Sometimes you get it
Sometimes you get got
Don't mix your whiskey with decision
Ask forgiveness, not permission
Do a rain-dance when it's mistin'
They say timing's everything
Talk less, just listen;
You can learn a lot.
Sometimes you get it,
Sometimes you get got.
Sometimes you get it,
Sometimes you get got.
Find yourself in a hole, stop diggin'
If the cotton row gets long, keep pickin'
Fish ain't bitin' son, keep fishin',
Always drink upstream from your cattle
Don't mix your whiskey with decision
Ask forgiveness not permission
