Kickin' and Screamin'
Well, I don't know what my uncle did
But he must have done it right
They sure strung him up one Saturday night
He had spent his whole life fussin'
Would have spent his last breath cussin'
'Til he realized the deal was really done
He started screamin' "hallelujah"
Tryin' to make his peace with everyone
Yeah, he was kickin' and screamin'
Just like he came in
He was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup
And go out hollerin' whoa
Lord, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go
Well, I could hear those church bells ringin'
To my best friend I was clingin'
Screamin' "If you love me brother don't let me go"
Well then the whole scene was repeated
Two years later I begged and pleaded
Screamin' "If you love me, honey,
Now you know you wouldn't want to let me go"
No, I didn't want to do it
But I sure don't want to see it come undone
Yeah, I was kickin' and screamin'
Just like I came in
I was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup
And go out hollerin' whoa
Lord, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go
Yeah, I was kickin' and screamin'
Just like I came in
I was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup
And go out hollerin' whoa
Seems, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go
Patadas y Gritos
No sé qué hizo mi tío
Pero debe haberlo hecho bien
Seguro lo colgaron un sábado por la noche
Pasó toda su vida quejándose
Habría maldecido hasta su último aliento
Hasta que se dio cuenta de que el trato estaba hecho
Empezó a gritar 'aleluya'
Tratando de hacer las paces con todos
Sí, estaba patadas y gritos
Justo como llegó
Estaba patadas y gritos, cariño
Hasta el amargo final
¿No es gracioso cómo entramos pataleando con entusiasmo?
Y salimos gritando '¡alto!'
Señor, nunca queremos estar aquí
Seguro que nunca queremos ir
Podía escuchar las campanas de la iglesia sonando
A mi mejor amigo me estaba aferrando
Gritando 'Si me amas hermano, no me dejes ir'
Luego toda la escena se repitió
Dos años después rogué y supliqué
Gritando 'Si me amas, cariño,
Ahora sabes que no querrías dejarme ir'
No, no quería hacerlo
Pero seguro que no quiero verlo desmoronarse
Sí, estaba patadas y gritos
Justo como llegué
Estaba patadas y gritos, cariño
Hasta el amargo final
¿No es gracioso cómo entramos pataleando con entusiasmo?
Y salimos gritando '¡alto!'
Señor, nunca queremos estar aquí
Seguro que nunca queremos ir
Sí, estaba patadas y gritos
Justo como llegué
Estaba patadas y gritos, cariño
Hasta el amargo final
¿No es gracioso cómo entramos pataleando con entusiasmo?
Y salimos gritando '¡alto!'
Parece que nunca queremos estar aquí
Seguro que nunca queremos ir
