Once in a While (from the album Catch the Squirrel)
The rain it falls, the river floods
Wearin’ hand-me-downs, on the ground
Now I’m stuck in the mud
Old Jack Brown, came to town
Old Jack Brown, made a sound
Now there’s no one around
Once in a while, gotta let your guard down
Once in a while, gotta let your guard down
Got a one-eyed dog, he’s my friend
Sittin’ on a log, out in the fog, waitin’ for the end
Judgement day, on it’s way
Wasn’t yesterday or today
When, the preacher didn’t say
Gotta let your guard down, once in a while
Gotta let your guard down, once in a while
Farmer Jim, lookin’ real slim
Crops didn’t grow, look at the shape he’s in
Plowin’ Joe, lookin’ for a hoe
December’s gonna go, for sure he knows
Got some seeds to sow
