Shake That Bush Again

Lookin' for some shelter Lookin' for some peace The fire in the furnace Been burnin' like the beast My pants have all been pressed All my collars neatly creased My ride bummin' thumb is up Cause now the hounds have been released Cloud around my head Leaves beneath my feet Fever in my fingertips And grease between my teeth Shakin' when I wake up Keep a heavin' just to breathe Chubby cherub up above me Heathen fiend asleep beneath I don't know where I'm goin' Only where I been Shake that bush again Leavin' in the evenin' Good girl don't you grieve But babe while I'm away You keep ya secrets safe for me Oh do you need the proof Or mama do you just believe? Or do you shake the hand of Man With Evil Up His Sleeve? Can ya understand Stand behind your man Might not always do right But he do just what he can Can't tell where he'll wind up When he come around the bend But you bet when he get there Gonna shake that bush again Shake it baby Man is just a man He can leave it he can take it But baby shake that tail just like a rattlesnake can shake it Ignominious decision but somebody got to make it Lord I know I made a promise but I'm gonna have to break it Lookin' for some shelter Lookin' for some peace The fire in the furnace Is burnin' like the beast Yes I'm headed West when the weary leave the East There's a new broom near my tombstone Sweep it clean for the deceased
