Drive-By Truckers Cottenseed Letras:
I came to tell my story to all these young and
eager minds To look in their unspoiled faces and
their curious bright eyes Stories of corruption,
crime and killing, yes it's true Greed and fixed
elections, guns and drugs and whores and booze

It's been a while since I put on a suit of my own
clothes And even longer since I cast my shadow on
a church house door They say every sin is deadly
but I believe they may be wrong I'm guilty of all
seven and I don't feel too bad at all

I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in
the back pocket of my suit I had a .45 underneath
my coat and another one in my boot I drove a big
ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased
And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama
put cottonseed

I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the

state I mentioned But a man like me don't do no
time too hard to come back from The meanest of the
mean, I see you lock away and toss the key But
they're all just loud mouth punks to me, I've
scraped meaner off my shoe

Somewhere, I ain't saying, there's a hole that
holds a judge The last one that I dug myself And I
must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did
the best I could Once his Honor grows a
conscience, well folks, that there just ain't no
good

There's a pretty girl out there said "Daddy,
you stay cool tonight All I need from you is to
come home and be here by my side Say what you
gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths If
they was to tie a noose, they'd have to lay their
Bibles down"

I ain't here to save no souls and even if I could
I could never save enough to put back half the
ones I took So if they rest in torment you can't
say it's cause of me They'd long been bought and
paid for like that fool's in Tennessee
