S.G. Goodman - River Rat Crawl Lyrics




[ Featuring The Savage Radley ]

His papa died when he was ten
He quit school and worked the farm
It's hard to watch your childhood end
Hard to watch your mother starve
He'd come in late at night
His mama put them records on
The ones his papa'd hold her tight to
Dance in the kitchen from dusk till dawn
Oh to the river rat crawl
He'd be dozing off
To the river rat crawl

His mama died in '43
Thanks to chloroform and gin
He sold the farm and went to town
Took a check and cashed it in
He went to the local bar
Took a lady by the hand
She left him on the dancing floor
Didn't understand
The river rat crawl
Be dozing off to the river rat crawl

Oh just a small town boy said he was never going home again
There's no job at the factory
They built on his father's land
A river rat crawl
A river rat crawl
Be dozing off
In a river rat's crawl

And they find Kentucky summer stays on your mind
Kentucky summer ain't hard to find
Kentucky summer stays on your mind
