Way down South 87 in a one lane town Bad Eddie's getting into shit with another commuter And he's working out a fix that'll settle it sooner Well who'd have thought a roadside feud could turn from nothing to that So don't tell if your mother should ask Death comes for good sons so bet on the bad Full stop Out the car and Eddie cold cocks him A little harder and it warrants an investigation And they haul him upstate with a life conviction Tell him that's the price that you're paying but he smiles and laughs And you can say what you want about that Death comes for good sons so bet on the bad Born under a false sign Drunk at the wrong times Walking like the living proof Why you say death comes for good sons and not for you Death comes for good sons and not for you Hey child Debts are gonna make you wait a while Sex is gonna make you look at him like you're meant to When he tells you all the things that he wants to tell you Helps you get a handle on forgiving the sins of your past Now you act how you've wanted to act Death comes for good sons so bet on the bad 5 Years Who'd have thought it'd take you 5 years And all it brought you was a life in perpetual motion An ex wife and a taste for suppressing emotion Spending all your money trying to get what you can't get back But there's hope in faith you lack Death comes for good sons so bet on the bad Born under a false sign Drunk at the wrong times Walking like living proof Why you say death'll come for good sons and not for you Death comes for good sons and not for you Death comes for good sons Death comes for good sons Death comes for good sons and not for you
