Rural Scandal

Rural Scandal
1. Rural Scandal


Rural Scandal
(verse 1)
the sheriff and the judge
sat in the courthouse one midnight
talking about how the judge had
cancer of the bone
and it's giving him quite a fright

the sheriff tells the judge don't worry
the judge replies that he's sorry
but he won't be able to run
next year for his seat in the county

the sheriff starts to sweat
the two of them have run this town since they first met
and now it's falling into ruin

(chorus)
"well ain't that some shit" he says in his mind
they managed to ruin everything and have a marvelous time
but now he's got to leave it behind
because the election's been rigged since it was his daddy's time
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
that means no more money
the judge said "it'll be fine trust me"
but the sheriff had trust issues to begin with
and it turns out he was right

he must look like a real sight
he's looking at everyone like they know
the strongest man in this place
hell's the next place he's going to go

(chorus)
"well ain't that some shit" he says in his mind
they managed to ruin everything and have a marvelous time
but now he's got to leave it behind
because the election's been rigged since it was his daddy's time
"well ain't that some shit" he says in his mind
they managed to ruin everything and have a marvelous time
but now he's got to leave it behind
because the election's been rigged since it was his daddy's time
(end chorus)

(bridge)
his mama can't look him in the face
there's a spot in the floor where he would pace
something like this will surely make the six o'clock news
in an orange jumpsuit he'll be singing prison yard blues
but not him, not him

(chorus)
"well ain't that some shit" he says in his mind
they managed to ruin everything and have a marvelous time
but now he's got to leave it behind
because the election's been rigged since it was his daddy's time
"well ain't that some shit" he says in his mind
they managed to ruin everything and have a marvelous time
but now he's got to leave it behind
because the election's been rigged since it was his daddy's time
(end chorus)
