Take Out Some Insurance

Lyrics

A man knocked upon my door said
 "Don't you know you're gonna die some day
 And I got a plan for you man, for when you pass away
 We'll give to your mother, your kids and your wife
 And all you have to give in return is your life"
 Take out some insurance, insurance today
 For tomorrow will come and take us away
 Two men were gamblin' in a parlour one night
 When a woman walked in with her dress up so tight
 She asked the two gentlemen would they fight for her name
 They got up and shot her and went back to their game
 Take out some insurance, insurance today
 For tomorrow will come and take us away
 ♪
 This ain't no sad song, don't cry in your beer
 For one day will come and we won't be here
 Somebody else will take up our game
 Different place, different name
 Take out some insurance, insurance today
 For tomorrow will come and take us away
 For tomorrow will come and take us away
