Lyrics

Yeah!
I’m a dealin’ man, still dealing, yeah
I’ll go keep on dealing ’til I find myself a bet
I got to stop dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down
Well I done stopped dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down

Yeah!
Raised in the country, got up raised in town
Got two kids and they’re all look like mine
I got to stop dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down
Yeah, I got to stop dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down

Yeah!
I’m dealing darling, bottom of the deck
Seem like somebody gonna take my shit
Well, I got to stop dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down
Well, I done stopped dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down

Yeah!

Yeah!
Born yesterday and not a day before
Here you come knocking at my door
Done stop dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down
Well I done stopped dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down

Yeah!

Yeah I done stopped dealing, I believe I’ll ride ’em on down
That was good
