Camper Van Beethoven - When I Win The Lottery lyrics

Well I lost an eye in Mexico
Lost two teeth where I do not know
People see me comin´ & they move to the other side
of the road.

I robbed a liquor store
To make myself at home a few times
Borrowed myself a car when I needed it.

I got me a shack at the bottom of the road
Fixin´ cars & givin´ tows
Spend all my money on the lottery.

When I win the lottery going to buy all girls on my block
A color TV & a bottle of French perfume
When I win the lottery going to donate half my money to
the city
So they have to name a street or a school or a park
after me
When I win the lottery

Never run a flag up a pole
Like Mr. Red, White, & Blue down the road
But I never called myself a hero for killing a known
communist.

Now I can walk into any old bar
Find a fight without looking too hard
But I never killed someone I do not know just ´cause
someone told me to.

And when I win the lottery
Going to buy the house next to Mr. Red, White & Blue
And when I win the lottery
Going to buy Post 306 American Legion, pain´t it red with
five gold stars.

When I win the lottery.

When the end comes to this old world
The rocks will cry & the rest will curl up
And God won´t take the time to sort your ass from
mine.

´Cause we zig & zag between good & bad
Stumble & fall on right & wrong
´Cause the tumbling dice & the luck of the draw
just leads us on.

And when I win the lottery, going to buy all the girls
on my block
Silver-plated six shooters & a quart of the finest
highland scotch
´Cause when I win the lottery, the rocks will shake
their heads & say that
God is good but surely works in mysterious ways.

When I win the lottery.
