Hospital Hymns

Why did my dog have to up and die?
Sweet Lord it wasn't his time
Why are all the good people I know crying?
When damnit I'm doing just fine
What is the doctor gonna find?
When he drills a hole in my father's spine.
If the cancer doesnt kill ya it'll take your pride
Sweet Lord we're all gonna die
I hadn't spent any time with You
Singing hospital hymns in the waiting room
I'm the very last one to hear the news
And there's nothing that I could do
'Cause death is a friend you can't refuse
Sweet Lord we're coming home soon
Mama I got holes in all my shoes
and plenty left to lose
hmmmm...
Just read that old book, it'll be alright
But the Bible never gave me no peace of mind
My prayer started tasting like little white lies
Everything is gonna be fine
Everything is gonna be fine
Honey, everything is gonna be fine
But women are masters of wasting time
And men rape everything in their sight
Together all we're good for is starting fights
Sweet Lord we're gonna burn in the fire
hmmmm...
If this song is my final breath
If I'm killed by the cancer in her breast
Let me give the little I have left
And die an honest death
hmmmm...
