The Gourds — Lament lyrics

Lyrics

I could tell you that I was a Christian
And I don’t guess that would be a lie
I could tell you that I’s church of Christ
And I don’t guess you could prove me wrong
So don’t trouble no policeman
He’s got a wife and kids of his own
And don’t trouble your neighbors
'Cause they just want to be left alone
I suppose if I was a demon
I might have bugs all over my legs
And it might make sense for me tangle
With my wife for awhile
So don’t trouble no policeman
He’s got a wife and kids of his own
And don’t trouble your neighbors
'Cause they just want to be left alone
Lord ain’t this nation lonely
Lord ain’t this nation lonely
Lord ain’t this nation lonely
Lord ain’t this nation lonely
