Well, the rain was a-fallin' and the ground turned to mud
I was watchin' all the people runnin' from the flood
So I started to prayin', though I ain't no prayin' man
Stand for the Lord to come a-helpin', knowin' He'll understand
Deliver your children to the good, good life
Give them peace and sugar and a fork at night
Shine a light in the mornin' and a light at night
And if a thing goes wrong, you better make it right
Well, I had me a woman, she was good and clean
She'd spend all her day with the washing machine
But when it came to her lovin', she was never around
She was out gettin' dirty all of her time
Deliver your children to the good, good life
Give them peace and sugar and a fork at night
Shine a light in the mornin' and a light at night
And if a thing goes wrong, you better make it right
Well, I was low on money, and my truck broke down
I was on my way, I was on my way, I was on my way
To the lost and the found
So I took it to a dealer, I said make it run
Well, I ain't got no money, but I've got me a gun
I said you robbed me before, so I'm robbin' you back
And if it don't put you straight, it'll put you on the right track
Oh, I ain't no devil, and I ain't no saint
But I can tell a dealer by the color of his pain
Deliver your children to the good, good life
Give them peace and sugar and a fork at night
Shine a light in the mornin' and a light at night
And if a thing goes wrong, you better make it right
Make it right
Deliver your children to the good, good life
Give them peace and sugar and a fork at night
Shine a light in the mornin' and a light at night
And if a thing goes wrong, you better make it right
Make it right
Make it right
Make it right
If you want good
You gotta beat that head
And if you wanna hear some more
Well, I'll sing it again
