becky's bible

Let the beer bottle
 Rattle on my pistol
 On the seat of my Chevy pick up truck
 And I'm takin' these gravel roads
 As fast as my truck will go
 I'm runnin' like a scared white tailed buck
 It was a long night card game
 With Earl Ray and Bobby
 And some ol' boys they worked with from Adair
 That boy didn't like me
 Then he said I was cheatin'
 Gun shots rang out on the midnight air
 I don't wanna see the daylight
 But my Becky's alone tonight
 I wonder if shes waitin' up for me
 I'm gonna hide out in the bottom
 Where I hunted deer and turkey
 I know that swamp like the back of my hand
 Hell I was born and raised here
 Just wanted to be a good ol' boy
 Never thought I'd ever be a wanted man
 But soon they gonna catch me
 Ain't no way around that
 'Cause I don't know any other place to hide
 I wonder if Becky's Bible is still in the glove box
 'Cause I'm sure gonna need it if that boy died
 I dont wanna see the daylight
 But my Becky's alone tonight
 I wonder if she's waitin' up for me
 ♪
 Sometime tomorrow mornin'
 When I ought to be fishin'
 They'll probably be haulin' me in
 I'll be sittin' in the jail house
 No need to be wishin'
 I'll ever get to fish the green river again
 I"ll be prayin' for some daylight
 'Cause my Becky's alone tonite
 I wonder if she's waitin' up for me
 I wonder if shes waitin' up for me
