Cover Me

(album: Mother Head's Family Reunion - 1994)

Now the long arm of law has just done issued a warrant
Out for my ass I got to run
I got a gun and two bullets waiting for some blood
And anyone who fucks with my world's done

Now the first stop I make I got to see me my woman
She got the stuff and I need some
I know in the morning if I get to the border
Love is gonna save me this time son

Everywhere I go you gotta cover me
Gotta lay low pro
Cover me no time is gonna free me
Anywhere I go you gotta cover me

Now I play for keeps when there's big trouble brewing
Ain't no one left when I am done
A bad man you say no room to argue
When I give love it's bad to the bone

Everywhere I go you gotta cover me
Gotta lay low pro
Cover me no time is gonna free me
Anywhere I go you gotta cover me

Everywhere I go you gotta cover me
Gotta lay low pro
Cover me no time is gonna free me
Anywhere I go you gotta cover me
