Becky's bible

Becky's bible - Chris Knight

Let the beer bottle

Rattle on my pistol

On the seat of my Chevy pick up truck

And I'm taking these gravel roads

As fast as my truck will go

I'm running like a scared white tail buck

It was a long night card game

With Earl Ray and Bobby

And some old boy they worked with from Adair

That boy didn't like me

Then he said I was cheatin'

Gun shots rang out on the midnight air

I don't wanna see the day light

But my Becky's alone tonight

I wonder if she is waiting up for me

I'm gonna hide out in the bottom

Where I hunted deer and turkey

I know that swamp like the back of my hand

Hell I was born and raised here

Just wanted to be a good old boy

Never thought I'd ever be a wanted man

But soon they gonna catch me

Ain't no way around that

Cause I don't know any other place to hide

I wonder if Becky's Bible is still in the glove box

Cause I'm sure gonna need it if that boy died

I don't wanna see the daylight

But my Beckys alone tonight

I wonder if she is waiting up for me

Sometime tomorrow morning

When I ought to be fishing

They'll probably be hauling me in

I'll be sittin' in the jail house

No need to be wishing

I'll ever get to fish the green river again

I"ll be prayin' for some daylight

Cause my Becky's alone tonight

I wonder if she is waiting up for me

I wonder if she is waiting up for me
