Lyrics

I run over a squirrel in Arkansas Before the blood wasn't even dry, When I see a few fallen angels And Lucifer tryin' to hitch a ride I pull over, they jump in, Lucifer says "how far's Mobile?" I say I don't rightly know, I'm goin' to Nashville to get a publishin' deal. And the fallen angels just laugh Call me Lucif? And listen, don't take this wrong. "Ain't nobody in this town gonna Wanna publish your song." "You're cool but you old, They don't care about that snake farm groove and grip." "And you didn't make any money Even when that ass Paul Thorn recorded it." And the fallen angels just laugh. I said, "that's cold, Your worthy of your reputation for bein' evil." "Ain't no need to sugar coat it" He said, "unless you're in St. Patrick's Cathedral." "Anyhow, how 'bout it, You drivin' us down to Mobile?" "We'll pay for cash, Buy you a lottery ticket and a confession prayer wheel." And the fallen angels just laugh. "Might as well" I said, "If you tell me about getting thrown outta heaven" Luke said "Sure, first stop at a package store, Let's get a bottle of Seagrams Seven." I pull into Nervous Charlie's - Fireworks And All Night Liquor Store. Luke gets out pulls out a gun, Puts on a ski mask and walks through the door. And the fallen angels just laugh. Well, I hear a couple shots, Oh Luke comes runnin' back. He says, "Make like Ray Charles And hit the road Jack!" I pull out almost wrecking, But I make it to the highway somehow. Luke says, "How do you think that clerk likes Take Your Sons To Work Day now?" And the fallen angels just laugh. I'm persona non-grata now, Barrelin' down the highway. Luke takes a sip of Seagrams says "Well as heaven that goes I aint much to say." I started a small rebellion Never thinking I'd end up hell bound. "Oh the story was I got tired of god jacking me around" And the fallen angels just laugh. Luke says, "I saw you on Jimmy Fallon Singing Drunken Poet's Dream" "So why go to Nashville Knowing you never ever gonna be mainstream?" "Go to somewhere like Texas Where they dig roots and blues and country that's real. " "It's better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven, That's why I'm going to Mobile." And the fallen angels just laugh. And the fallen angels just laugh. And the fallen angels just laugh.
