If the Good Lord's Willing
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays down
I'll be in your arms time the moon comes around
For a taste of love that's shinin' in your eyes
If the rooster crows at the crackin' of the dawn
I'll be there just as sure as you're born
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
I'll comb my hair down brush my teeth
Shine up slick up dress up neat
Get everything a lookin' just right
'Cause I wanna look pretty when I see you tonight
Just as sure as the rabbits are a jumpin' in the hollow
I'll be there, you can bet your bottom dollar
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays low
I'll be there a knockin' at your door
With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize
I'll wear my suit, my Sunday best
I'll be there a lookin' my best
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
I'll feed the mules and slop the hogs
Feed the cows and chop all the logs
Get all of my workin' done
'Cause tonight we're gonna havea a lots of fun
Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man
I'll be there with a ring for your hand
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek don't rise
I'll be in your arms time the moon comes around
For a taste of love that's shinin' in your eyes
If the rooster crows at the crackin' of the dawn
I'll be there just as sure as you're born
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
I'll comb my hair down brush my teeth
Shine up slick up dress up neat
Get everything a lookin' just right
'Cause I wanna look pretty when I see you tonight
Just as sure as the rabbits are a jumpin' in the hollow
I'll be there, you can bet your bottom dollar
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays low
I'll be there a knockin' at your door
With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize
I'll wear my suit, my Sunday best
I'll be there a lookin' my best
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
I'll feed the mules and slop the hogs
Feed the cows and chop all the logs
Get all of my workin' done
'Cause tonight we're gonna havea a lots of fun
Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man
I'll be there with a ring for your hand
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek don't rise
