Deliver Your Child

[Verse 1] Deliver your children well, the rain was a-failing And the ground turned to mud I was watching all the people Running from the flood So i starred to paying Though i ain't no praying man For the lord to come a helping Knowing he'd understand [Chorus] Deliver your children to the good good life Give'em peace and shelter and a fork and knife Shine a light in the morning and a light at night And if a thing goes wrong you'd better make it right [Verse 2] Well, i had a woman She was good and clean She spent all day with the washing machine But when it come to loving She was never around She was out getting dirty All over town [Chorus] [Verse 3] Well, i was low on money And my truck broke down I was on my way to the lost and found So i took it to a dealer I said make it run Well, i ain't got no money But i got me a gun I said you robbed me before So i'm robbing you back And if it don't put you straight It'll put you on the right track Well, i ain't no devil and i ain't no saint But i can tell a dealer by the colour of his paint
