Animal

Ha ha

Papaw was a painter, daddy was the same
Fought roosters on the weekend to keep
The farm from the state
Them bills got higher
Diesel climbed through the roof
Them numbers on them work
Trucks got disconnected too

Just a poor boy on a farm
Foreclosed on my roots
Dip stains in my Wranglers and
Holes in my boots
Clueless to the world, fearful of no man
Raised a animal of my own
My teeth blood stain red

I'm alive there's a, there's a animal inside
I'm from a, from another time
That's why you never see me smile
There's an animal inside

I'm a nobody, only bones and flesh
Just a feller with a last name
The government made me have
But these feet have ran trails
These hands have touched the soil
So when I get to where I'm goin'
My last name will be worth gold

I'm alive there's an animal inside
I'm from, from another time
That's why you never see me smile
There's an animal inside
