I Got The Good Lord By My Side Lyrics

Cats in the yard

Dogs in the kitchen

Rabbit got eaten

And the rooster gone miss'n

Mosquito's biting

So the boys are out fish'n

And it's alright by me

Yes it's alright by me

Sun is shine'n down on the river

Ain't got much miss'n two toes

And the gator got my finger

Whiskey and gin took my liver

Can't complain cuz tomorrow be better

Cuz I got the good lord by my side

Yes I got the good lord by my side

I got three little boys one in the oven

A good look'n mama never complains bout nut'n

One of these days gonna take her to the city

Buy a new dress she's gonna look so pretty

When she's gone I play with my sister

She's not so pretty but I dog gone miss her

And I got the good lord by my side

Yes I got the good lord by my side

Patience patience little man

That woman got ya by the palm of her hand

It's better to give then receive

Love your neighbor and you will see

And it's alright by me

Yes it's alright by me

I work plenty hard to earn my liv'n

Down on the river it's a piece of heaven

Go to church to be forgiven

Say my prayers just before dinner

miss'n two toes

And a gator got my finger

And it's alright by me

Cuz I got the good lord by my side

Yes, I got the good lord by my side
