Steep Canyon Rangers - Stand and Deliver lyrics

I dug my share of treasure Dug so deep they called it a crime There might be pleasures I've never tasted But I ain't wasting no more time CHORUS Cause the furnace is burnin' white-hot And the hammer is swingin' with the weight of the world Now's the time, like it or not Stand and deliver, stand and deliver That old pig's so proud lyin' in the mud And Miss Chicken's just happy, she ain't been fried The buzzards ain't worried about no flood But I'm not ready to be satisfied CHORUS I got a picture of Teddy Roosevelt Hangin' on the wall in my home on the range But I felt a strange wind blowin' Tellin' me something is about to change CHORUS Some folks keep their heads in the clouds Straining for the sound of the angels strumming I've been known to pray out loud But I ain't waitin' for the second coming CHORUS
