[Lyric] Sooner Than Later (Dale Hollow)

All dressed up and nowhere to go
I'm headed to hell in a pair of
Gasoline drawers

Well I don't know what I've been told
But I'll tell you something that I wish I'd known
They're only words, unless they're true
And I should never have lied to you

But please tell me what you would say
When the IRS finds your tax haven
On the shores of the Seychelles
Or somewhere nice like Curacao

I nevеr should have bought me a boat
And now I'm up the damnеd creek without propulsion

I ain't no wolf of any corporate elite
And now the walls are crumbling down around me
But if I say I'm sorry for involving you
Will that propel you to pay my bailout
Sooner than later?
I'd atone for all my sins
If I wasn't already so far into the red
I know I said "Fools rush in," but it's also foolish to keep lying
So tell me how should I say "I'm sorry."
I swear by this time next year we're gonna have more money
I hope

Where I pay off all my credit cards
And we'll have a house with a big front yard
As I build up my own self worth
And I promise I'll stop being such a jerk
I just need you to keep me in check
And we'll be straight cash if you pay my bail
On time

I know it's rich when this is coming from me
But right now I need you to believe it
If you don't pay now they're gonna send me away
Guaranteeing that you won't see me
Sooner than later
