When A Good Ol` Boys Goes Bad Lyrics

When A Good Ol` Boys Goes Bad lyrics

Old Clarence was a corn fed sunday school teacher 


At the Cheap Hill
church of christ


A god fearin, fence clearin', hay slingin', hymn
singin'


Back breaker all of his life


Came in early one
night found his pretty wife


In the arms of another man


There's hell to pay when a good ol'boy goes bad





In a
smoke filled late night club by the river


Sat a stranger dealin'
five card stud


He was a big talkin' fast walkin' fly by nighter


There to take your money and run


They caught the fella
cheatin' so they set him up a meetin'


With his maker in the promise
land


Nobody sees a thing when a good ol'boy goes bad





The good book goes out the window


When the gloves go to the
floor


His give a damn to be a righteous man


Don't give a
damn no more


Under that blue collar there's a big ol'long red
path


That hides the truth but it bleeds through


When a
good ol'boy goes bad





Now old man Taylor was a fourth
generation


Crop grownin' son of a gun


One dry summer
Uncle Samn come a runnin'


Wantin' money but there wasn't none


He put a crop in the holler when night came he watered


By
fall he had the cold hard cash


When times get hard


Sometimes a good ol'boy goes bad





It hides the truth
but it bleeds through 


When a good ol' boy goes bad
