Steep Canyon Rangers - Stand and Deliver Lyrics
I dug my share of treasureDug so deep they called it a crimeThere might be pleasures I’ve never tastedBut I ain’t wasting no more timeCHORUSCause the furnace is burnin’ white-hotAnd the hammer is swingin’ with the weight of the worldNow’s the time, like it or notStand and deliver, stand and deliverThat old pig’s so proud lyin’ in the mudAnd Miss Chicken’s just happy, she ain’t been friedThe buzzards ain’t worried about no floodBut I’m not ready to be satisfiedCHORUSI got a picture of Teddy RooseveltHangin’ on the wall in my home on the rangeBut I felt a strange wind blowin’Tellin’ me something is about to changeCHORUSSome folks keep their heads in the cloudsStraining for the sound of the angels strummingI’ve been known to pray out loudBut I ain’t waitin’ for the second comingCHORUS
