letra de theme of licking river - neal james

[verse 1]
down the licking river
we don’t need what we ain’t got
born an outlaw
boy, let me tell you what
great-granddaddy died
an’ he was wearin’ a coat of gray
he said oh, make your peace with god now, son
before the judgement day
a man’s gotta treat every man the same
no matter about his skin
don’t give no grief to the government, boy
that’s a battle you can’t win
hard work’s gonna make you strong
learn when to take and give
stand up for what you know is right
live and let live

[chorus]
they say the south’s gonna do it again
and that might be all wrong
but down here on the river, y’all
we’ve been doin’ it all along

[verse 2]
makin’ turkey calls and when the wildcat squalls
that’s what we call fun
god rest the soul of any man
who try to take my gun
underneath them city lights
there’s too much goin’ on
you can find me in the backwoods
and i’m better left alone
but god gave us dominion
over every livin’ thing
and lord knows i’ve got respect
for all he’s given me
as long as i am a livin’
i’ll be doin’ the best i can
to watch the sun rise every morning
from a blind old promised land

[chorus]
they say the south’s gonna do it again
and that might be all wrong
but down here on the river, y’all
we’ve been doin’ it all along

[bridge]
lord, he let me said a man’s got
he puts on himself
and you can bet your bottom dollar
i won’t be put up on no shelf

[pre-chorus]
the warrior might be wounded
but he ain’t never changed
and lookin’ for a big ol’ whitetail
but he’s a warrior all the same

[chorus]
they say the south’s gonna do it again
and that might be all wrong
but down here on the river, y’all
we’ve been doin’ it all along
