if the good lord s willing

Johnny Cash

If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays down
I'll be in your arms time the moon comes around
For a taste of love that's shinin' in your eyes
If the rooster crows at the crackin' of the dawn
I'll be there just as sure as you're born
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise

I'll comb my hair down brush my teeth
Shine up slick up dress up neat
Get ev'rything a lookin' just right
Cause I wanna look pretty when I see you tonight
Just as sure as the rabbits are a jumpin' in the hollow
I'll be there you can bet your bottom dollar
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise

If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays low
I'll be there a knockin' at your door
With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize
I'll wear my suit my Sunday best I'll be there a lookin' my best
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise

I'll feed the mules and slop the hogs
Feed the cows and chop all the logs
Get all of my workin' done
Cause tonight we're gonna havea a lots of fun
Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man
I'll be there with a ring for your hand
If the good Lord's willin' and the creek don't rise.
