Beagle Blues

Poor Ace, he's got the beagle blues What's a poor dog to do All I ever wanted was to play with you And now my ball ball days through If someone took your ball away, you'd feel this way too That's why I sing them beagle blues It feels like the last time We both know it's not the last time It feels like the last time We both know it's not the last time Poor Ace, he's got the beagle blues What's a poor dog to do All I ever wanted was to play with you And now my ball ball days through If someone took your ball away, you'd feel this way too That's why I sing them beagle blues A toast to the country club queen May your glass always be full And your whiskey be clean Have a cold one in heaven waiting for me A fireball came out of the sky, looked at me straight in the eye God wants to know are you ready to go God wants to know am I ready to go God wants to know are you ready to go God wants to know are you ready to go Please Lord, one more day, there's still souls to save Please Lord a little more time, for me to share your rhymes Please Lord, I want to spend my time with you, but there's more of your work to do Please Lord, one more day. That's what I prayed Are you ready to lighten your load Go to where the streets are gold See all the friends you've known Heavens a one way road Jesus just wants to be friends with you Help see you through the beagle blues But it's up to you to choose What about all those things that happened to me Jesus will set you free What about all those who sinned in your name They'll have to wear their shame I was walking along, all alone, suddenly the sky explodes I knew I need not fear, for the Lord was near Take my children by their hand, go out across the land Help them to understand, God's love for them is Oh so grand Take my children by their hand, lead them to the promised land Help them to understand God's love for them is oh so grand A fireball came out of the sky, looked at me straight in the eye God wants to know are you ready to die I'm ready to die He'll help you lighten your load Take you where the streets are gold Show you all the friends you've known Heavens a one way road Are you ready to go Please Lord heaven can wait, I've got empty dinner plates I'd love to spend my time with you, but there's more of your work to do Please Lord one more day That's what I prayed Poor Ace he's got the beagle blues Good Lord help see him through
