One Foot in the Grave
I put one foot forward while the other one stomps on the grave
And my hands clap a rhythm but the lord ain't listening today
I wen't down to the river because the river ain't no place to pray
And I look at myself in the mirror and say
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
I dive down deep into the belly of the whale
Wash myself in a big black tub
Rub a dub dub rub a dub dub
I hear one hand clapping while the other one gives me a wave
And the lord keeps whistling but I ain't listening today
I'm gonna drown in the river, gonna float all my troubles away
And I look at myself in the mirror and say
Boy you're gonna grow to be a man someday
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
Dive down deep in the belly of the whale
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
I dive down deep into the belly of the whale
Wash myself in a big black tub
Rub a dub dub rub a dub dub
And my hands clap a rhythm but the lord ain't listening today
I wen't down to the river because the river ain't no place to pray
And I look at myself in the mirror and say
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
I dive down deep into the belly of the whale
Wash myself in a big black tub
Rub a dub dub rub a dub dub
I hear one hand clapping while the other one gives me a wave
And the lord keeps whistling but I ain't listening today
I'm gonna drown in the river, gonna float all my troubles away
And I look at myself in the mirror and say
Boy you're gonna grow to be a man someday
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
Dive down deep in the belly of the whale
Like the suicide snake I bite my tail
I dive down deep into the belly of the whale
Wash myself in a big black tub
Rub a dub dub rub a dub dub
