Meat off the Bone

I been waiting on a cold front

to trample this sun

I been calling my mama on the telephone

I been eating lot o chicken

on the kitchen stove

and pulling the meat right off the bone

 

I been sending letters of sorrow home

I been hurting deep and not sleeping long

I been eating lots o chicken

and getting mighty stoned

and pulling the meat right off the bone

 

And I ask myself how did it get this way

but when I ask myself I ain't got much to say

I'm cooking the chicken and eating the crow

& pulling the meat right off the bone

 

We have no preacher to marry our son

Our daughters have no faith in a christian home

How shall we live now, now that God is gone

We're pulling the meat right off the bone

 

And I ask myself how did it get this way

but when I ask myself I ain't got much to say

I'm cooking the chicken and eating the crow

& pulling the meat right off the bone
