Burnin' Lyrics

Dead coyote on the side of the road

Train cars burnin' from coast to coast

News folk talkin' bout a UFO

And I still can't buy no smokes

And my mama said

Son quit singin' bout the drugs you do

We both know you ain't got a bone in you

That'll roll that tobacco and puff them fumes

Cause all you ever knew

Is how to run your mouth

Piss off the neighbors and play real loud

Just run your mouth

And sing all through this house

And I said, oh

Well the way I see it, you

You just don't get

That if the whole world's burnin' I'm damn sure burnin' too

Church bells ringin' for the comin' of Christ

World war brewing like a Miller Lite

Cause Bud done found himself a hell of a fight

And I still can't find my lighter

And the preacher said, boy

Ain't you a church boy too

Ain't you got a darn thing better to do

Than roll that tobacco and puff them fumes

I said all you ever knew

Was how to run your mouth

Piss off the people and play to the crowd

Just run your mouth

And preach your own damn route

And I said, oh

Well the way I see it

Jesus ain't the stuck up coward you wish he was

Karma come knockin' like the angel of death

Holdin' down the dollar til its last breath

And the Lord gon' see to its final rest

Cause the tree's on fire

And the fire's burnin' higher

Little birdie gotta leave the nest

Smoke clouds blockin' out the sun and the moon

You payed for the poison now you're breathin' it too

This land of the free is still controlled by the few

And the vote's on fire

Little birdie fly higher

And you just might see that too

And I said, oh

Well the way I see it

Evil ain't the big bad secret it used to be

Not the helpless vision we used to see

Not the same scared people who bend the knee
