Put this one together over the last couple days. I've been kind of jones'n to write a country tune lately. It seems I get a twang in me every so often that needs to come out. I feel like this one came out at just the right time.
You know I'd like to sit, but I think I'll stand
And I'm not one to judge, but you're my friend
The mayor and his men are on their way
They've got handcuffs, fancy shoes, and things to say
I'll keep standin' here with you if it's what you want to do
but if you'd rather duck down I know a good place to stay
So let's go, I'm ready to roll
Being friends with the devil don't mean that you sold your soul
So let's go, honey, I'm ready to roll
Got debt to pay, don't mean there's anything you stole
You know I'd like to quit, but I'll take one more
It's only gonna bring me down, but that's what it's for
Cuz they let me out of jail on Saturday
They said, "You better rest up cuz tomorrow you've gotta pray"
So I set my mind to dream--was gonna wake up and come clean
but I couldn't sleep not knowing what I'd say
So let's go, I'm ready to roll
Being friends with the devil don't mean that I sold my soul
So let's go, honey, I'm ready to roll
Got debt to pay, don't mean there's anything I stole
