Hallelujah Without an Amen
Maybe this year we’ll cut our lawn
Maybe this year we’ll get all the neighbors to like us
Maybe this year, we’ll do something about that red door
We let the dog get to
He would scratch, he would scratch
And we wouldn’t let him in
Now he’s buried, buried, buried in the backyard
Poor soul, oh he’s just lying there
But he haunts us I swear
He’s howling at the moon
[Chorus]
Hallelujah without an “Amen”
And there’s nothing for us, nothing for us
Just whiskey rivers and red wine, Amen!
And they’re running through us
Running through us again
Soon the young one will head off to college
How I’ll miss her, how I’ll miss that soul
And the old one has moved out to Vegas
“How’s she doing?”
“Hell, I don’t know!?”
See my papa he, he’s a simple man
He just wants a woman to hold his hand
But he’s working, working, working so damn long
