The Lonesome River Band - Stray Dogs and Alley Cats lyrics



Every Sunday in my momma's church
I'd sneak some money outta momma's purse
While she was prayin' I would slip away
Down at the pool hall I'd all day
I'd meet her at home and she would shake her head
You're fluffin' pillows on the devils bed
I tell her mom I know just how you feel
But I made enough to cover all our bills

Chorus:
Too bad for heaven and too good for hell
Little wings are better than big tails
I don't expect to sit at God's right hand
But I could empty heaven's garbage can
Hope there is room on those golden streets
For stray dogs and alley cats like me

If they won't let me in the big front gate
Maybe I could go in the back way
My halo probably wouldn't shine real bright
But it would get me through the clouds at night
And I don't care if I'm the last to sing
Or if I've got the smallest set of wings
I'd watch the little devils down on earth
And I'd follow them when they sneak out of church

Too bad for heaven and too good for hell
Little wings are better than big tails
I don't expect to sit at God's right hand
But I could empty heaven's garbage can
Hope there is room on those golden streets
For stray dogs and alley cats
For stray dogs and alley cats
For stray dogs and alley cats like me
