In the Mean Time

Sometimes I wonder where my next dollar gonna come from Keep my head up and somen falls out of the sky Daddy taught me how to use my bootstraps and carry on He said God will be good to you son if you try Uncle Sam comes around gettin' both hands in your pocket People out there, just barely are gettin' by Render unto Caesar no more than you got to Keep the Lord in your heart, and keep your powder dry But do you good in the mean time While you're waitin' on a good time, draw the line Well you might wanna think about gettin' yourself a shotgun You might wanna think about growin' you a garden patch You might have to go out and shoot somen and drag it home But don't never count your chickens before they hatch But do you good in the mean time While you're waitin' on a good time, draw the line I'm pretty sure that the government ain't gonna save you The good Lord helps the ones that help themselves You wanna stand on your own 2 feet, and use some backbone Don't go crawlin' on your knees, beggin' for help But do you good in the mean time While you're waitin' on a good time, draw the line Yeah in the mean time, draw the line
