<pre><font size='+2'>COTTENSEED lyrics DRIVEBY TRUCKERS</font><br>I came to tell my story to all these young and eager minds<br />
<br />
To look in their unspoiled faces and their curious bright eyes<br />
<br />
Stories of corruption, crime and killing, yes it`s true<br />
<br />
Greed and fixed elections, guns and drugs and whores and booze<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It`s been a while since I put on a suit of my own clothes<br />
<br />
And even longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door<br />
<br />
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong<br />
<br />
I`m guilty of all seven and I don`t feel too bad at all<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit<br />
<br />
I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my boot<br />
<br />
I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased<br />
<br />
And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama put cottonseed<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I mentioned<br />
<br />
But a man like me don`t do no time too hard to come back from<br />
<br />
The meanest of the mean, I see you lock away and toss the key<br />
<br />
But they`re all just loud mouth punks to me, I`ve scraped meaner off my shoe<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Somewhere, I ain`t saying, there`s a hole that holds a judge<br />
<br />
The last one that I dug myself<br />
<br />
And I must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could<br />
<br />
Once his Honor grows a conscience, well folks, that there just ain`t no good<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There`s a pretty girl out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight<br />
<br />
All I need from you is to come home and be here by my side<br />
<br />
Say what you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths<br />
<br />
If they was to tie a noose, they`d have to lay their Bibles down"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I ain`t here to save no souls and even if I could<br />
<br />
I could never save enough to put back half the ones I took<br />
<br />
So if they rest in torment you can`t say it`s cause of me<br />

I came to tell my story to all these young and eager minds

To look in their unspoiled faces and their curious bright eyes

Stories of corruption, crime and killing, yes it`s true

Greed and fixed elections, guns and drugs and whores and booze

It`s been a while since I put on a suit of my own clothes

And even longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door

They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong

I`m guilty of all seven and I don`t feel too bad at all

I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit

I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my boot

I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased

And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama put cottonseed

I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I mentioned

But a man like me don`t do no time too hard to come back from

The meanest of the mean, I see you lock away and toss the key

But they`re all just loud mouth punks to me, I`ve scraped meaner off my shoe

Somewhere, I ain`t saying, there`s a hole that holds a judge

The last one that I dug myself

And I must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could

Once his Honor grows a conscience, well folks, that there just ain`t no good

There`s a pretty girl out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight

All I need from you is to come home and be here by my side

Say what you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths

If they was to tie a noose, they`d have to lay their Bibles down"

I ain`t here to save no souls and even if I could

I could never save enough to put back half the ones I took

So if they rest in torment you can`t say it`s cause of me

They`d long been bought and paid for like that fool`s in Tennessee
