Intro: Verse 1 Why did my dog have to up and die? Sweet Lord it wasn't his time Why are all the good people I know crying? When damnit I'm doing just fine What is the doctor gonna find? When he drills a hole in my father's spine. If the cancer doesnt kill ya it'll take your pride Sweet Lord we're all gonna die Interlude verse 2 I hadn't spent any time with You Singing hospital hymns in the waiting room I'm the very last one to hear the news And there's nothing that I could do 'Cause death is a friend you can't refuse Sweet Lord we're coming home soon Mama I got holes in all my shoes and plenty left to lose Interlude hmmmm... verse 3 Just read that old book, it'll be alright But the Bible never gave me no peace of mind My prayer started tasting like little white lies Everything is gonna be fine Everything is gonna be fine Honey, everything is gonna be fine But women are masters of wasting time And men rape everything in their sight Together all we're good for is starting fights Sweet Lord we're gonna burn in the fire Interlude hmmmm... verse 4 If this song is my final breath If I'm killed by the cancer in her breast Let me give the little I have left And die an honest death Outro hmmmm...
