"Poachers" lyrics

I ain't bad, I'm just lazy and I ain't got around to it
I shot it on Wednesday and it's almost the next
How long do I have to call it in and be legal
Or is it sufficient if I honor my tags?
I was askin' myself as I explained to Dylan
The importance of havin' your license, you see
'Cause you never can tell when a warden will roll in
They got more authority than the great God, I think

I can hear 'em now talkin', ah, God, it is scandalous
They were took in for poachin', they were both packin' heat
They were crossin' state lines, they were drivin' a Caddy
With a cab full of dogs and a trunk full of meat

They'd think we were high, they'd say I was slippin'
Trill told me 'bout somethin' that his buddies call lean
It sounds like a drag, I like my drugs, methy
But if I's runnin' with him, they'd suspect it of me

I can hear 'em now talkin', ah, God, it is scandalous
His Papaw'd be rollin', I don't know where he strayed
I know that you'd know him, he's the one on the rad'ya
He's the one with the vid'ya of the coal minin' gays

I can hear 'em now talkin', ah, God, it is scandalous
He could have been somethin' if he weren't such a mess
If he hadn't went broke, God cancel him sideways
We lost us another to the others, I guess

I told Trill of a place where they took your belongings
And they sold 'em at auction twice a year for the state
They'd get a thirty-two North Star, some pistols, a cooler
The weed would walk off, and the dogs they would take
And if they couldn't relearn, oh, my God, it is scandalous
They'd go to a shelter, they'd give 'em away
A dog that's worth stacks, a one-in-a-million
Pride of the kennel, McDowell Kennels' face

I hope we keep all our dogs, I'm too busy for prison
And if you get to squintin' in my own unique way
I'm pretty enough that God, it'd be scandalous
I'm a miner at heart, so I'd dig out a way
And I'd stand there like Dufresne, far enough from the searchlight
And flip off you bastards in the sewage and rain
I'd howl like a dog, I'd sound like a real one
I'd burn like a candle and grin in your face

I'd howl like a dog, I'd sound like a real one
I'd burn like a candle and grin in your face
