Lucifer and the Fallen Angels Ray Wylie Hubbard

[Verse 1]
I run over a squirrel in Arkansas
Well, the blood wasn't even dry
When I see a few fallen angels
And Lucifer tryin' to hitch a ride
I pull over, they jump in
Lucifer says "How far's Mobile?"
I say "I don't rightly know
"I'm goin' to Nashville to get a publishing deal"
And the fallen angels just laugh

[Verse 2]
Calmly Lucifer said:
"Now listen, don't take this wrong
"Ain't nobody in that town
"Is gonna wanna publish your songs
"You're cool but you old
"They don't care about that snake farm groove and grit
"And you didn't make any money
"Even when badass Paul Thorn recorded it"
And the fallen angels just laugh

[Verse 3]
I said "That's cold!
"You're worthy of your reputation for bein' evil"
"Ain't no need to sugar coat it," he said
"Unless you're in St. Patrick's Cathedral
"Anyhow, how 'bout it?
You drivin' us down to Mobile?
"We'll pay for cash, buy you a lottery ticket
"And a Tibetan prayer wheel"
And the fallen angels just laugh
