McClinton, Delbert - The Rub Lyrics
I know how much you hate to get up in the mornin'
But somebody's gotta make a move.
There's a parking lot full of po-lice outside
And they all 'axed' of you.
And I said "Well hell, that's the way it ought to be."
And he said "I never shot him. He shot himself,
While he was shootin' at me."
Hey there's a pitchfork sticking through the roof of the car
And both the headlights are busted out."
These people say they saw you runnin' away."
He said, "Hell, I was just going for help."
I hope somebody's writin' this down.
My guess is, he just went insane,
Tried to swim away with too much change.
The Doctor said I can fix that for ya but it's gonna be awhile.
Just go on an' take a seat.
Try not to bleed on the carpet and
Pull the door shut when you leave.
A singer/songwriter/massage therapist friend of mine
Said y'all might be needin' a little help.
Now I'll drive your truck but I don't lift nothin'
And I room all by myself!
I hope somebody's writin' this down.
Let's get our story straight, boys, 'fore we get back to town.
Now all'a'y'all witnessed what I said he done.
I hope he makes bail. I love it when they run.

I hope he makes bail
I love it when they run.
Delbert has been a favorite of mine for many years. I have always wondered why he isn't more celebrated. He is a fabulous singer and writer plus he's a nice guy.
So funky
One of the funkiest horn driven tunes he has done also one my favorites.Lyrical genius!!
