Got up this morning
Got into my car
Turned on the motor
But it would not start
Late for work
Feelin' tired
Worst of all
I got myself fired
Lost my job
Got my pay
Lost it all
On the ace of spades
But all my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you
Things got bad
Out of work
I robbed a store
And I shot the clerk
Woman sweet woman
I done my best
But that got me surrounded
I been shot in my chest
I can hear 'em comin'
Bustin' down the door
If I could only
See you once more
All my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you
(solo)
There's a reason for this story
Morals to my sons
Ya better know what's right
Ya better know what's wrong
When it rains it pours
That's natures way
We're all little children
That forgot how to play
There ain't but one thing
I got left to say
Somethin' don't come from nothin'
You always gotta pay
But all my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you
Black Oak Arkansas è stato un gruppo di Southern Rock di successo negli anni '70. Il loro brano più famoso, "Jim Dandy (to the Rescue)", vedeva la collaborazione con la sensazionale Miss Ruby Starr. Il gruppo ha riscosso un enorme successo anche nei tour, grazie all'energia delle loro performance e all'immagine iconica di Jim Dandy. L'energia dal vivo del gruppo era spesso esaltata quando Ruby Starr accompagnava il gruppo sia in concerto che in numerose apparizioni televisive. Black Oak Arkansas è stato anche il trampolino di lancio per il batterista Tommy Aldridge, che ha poi raggiunto la fama con artisti come Ozzy Osbourne e Whitesnake. Verso la fine degli anni '70, Black Oak si dissolse dopo diversi cambiamenti di formazione e musicali. Jim Dandy aveva inoltre subito un attacco cardiaco nel 1980.
