Kenny Price - Northeast Arkansas Mississippi County Bo слова песни
There wasn`t nobody that ever liked him farless loved himIf you never got the chance to get to know him you wouldn`t thought too much of himFolks said he was half mean if that was so that`s all the mean he had to beAs big as he wasHe was my daddy and he raised meThe northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootleggerI can`t say that all he did in his life was always rightI`ve heard talk back before I was born that he killed a man in a fightBut all I know about him was how he took care of his ownAnd some he didn`t have toThey`d shun him through the day but at night they`d bowFrom the northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootlegger[ dobro ]He was ma daddy and he raised meThe northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootleggerMy mama used to take me down to the croosroard church on SundayThe deacons and the ladies would talk about us and how we got our moneyBut that didn`t stop themWhen they decided they wanted a brand new sanctuary they came to see mamaAnd the house of God was paid forBy the northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootleggerNow a man can only do the best he can by those he lovesAnd maybe the livin` he made for us some others were jealous ofThe law of the land said he couldn`t do itBut there`s also the law of supply and demand if it hadn`t been himIt might have been someone who wasn`t as honestAs the northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootleggerYeah he was a good man when he died I criedFor the northeast Arkansas Mississippi County bootlegger
