Late July (Audiotree Live Version)

Oh, gold digger took my money

Dipped my heart and hands in honey

Old snake lady stole my savings

Told gold digger she was having my babies

Well gold digger swung, snake lady fell

I took gold digger up to chapel hill

I married her fast, murdered her young

Took my money back and made my run

Well bus driver, yeah, all in red

Pull this bus over and end up dead

Yeah, go drive this bus down to Mexico

Park it on a cliff where that good grass grows

Until a chopper came along one sunny day

To burn crops, lock me away

Well I'm eager, young, and qualified

Got a date with that chair, oh, in late July

My mama old and grey

Sitting at home weeping away

Her only boy washed down the drain

Gonna take her son and lock him away

Well mama should be proud of me

Oh, I lived like a man, oh, I'll die like a king

'Cause I'm eager, young, and qualified

Got a date with that chair, oh, in late July

Well my papa, oh, he's old and fat

He's chewing his cigar with his hair slicked back

Yeah, roll him over, beat him black

Say it's from that boy he never had

Well papa should be in my place

Oh, to fry like bacon, hang like lace

'Cause I'm eager, young, and qualified

I got a date with that chair, oh, in late July

Yeah so, oh, Big Betty, yeah, my old squeeze

Kiss you so good you go weak in the knees

Gone to see her old man pop

I wanna have you there when my big heart stops

But don't you worry, don't you fret

Oh, I won't die with no regrets

'Cause I'm eager, young, and qualified

Well I'm eager, young, and starry-eyed

Well the big leagues call, oh, and you know that I reply

I got a date with that chair, oh, in late July

Oh, he's coming up

Mighty, mighty, mighty fast just like
