Well I lost an eye in Mexico
I lost two teeth, where I don't know
People see me coming and they move to the other side of the road
I robbed a liquor store or two
I made myself at home a few times
Borrow myself a car when I need it
I got me a shack at the bottom of the road
Fixing cars and giving tows
I spend all my money
On the lottery

When I win the lottery
Gonna buy all the girls on my block
Color TV and a bottle of French perfume
When I win the lottery
Gonna 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 ran a flag
Up a pole
Like Mr. Red White and Blue down the road
But I never call myself a hero for killing a known communist
Now I could walk into any old bar
And find a fight without looking too hard
But I never killed someone I don't know
Just cause someone told me to.

And when I win the lottery
Gonna buy the house next to Mr.
Red, White and Blue
And when I win the lottery
Gonna buy post 306
American legion, paint it red with five gold stars
When I win the lottery

When the end comes to this old world
The righteous will cry and the rest will curl up
God won't take the time
To sort your ashes from mine
Cause we zig and zag between good and bad
Stumble and fall on right and wrong
Cause the tumbling dice with the luck of the draw
Just leads us on

And when I win the lottery
Gonna buy all the girls on my block
Silver plated
Six shooters with a quart of the finest highland scotch
Cause when I win the lottery
The righteous will shake their heads and say
That God is good, but surely works in mysterious ways
When I win the lottery.

    @boombud I WON THE LOTTERY: I was going to be a retired bus driver without savings, the thought of life after retirement kept draining me daily, I have been playing lotto for years without winning. I went online for research on life after retirement when I saw testimonies where appreciated a spell caster called Dr. Bubuza for giving them LOTTO winning numbers so I immediately contacted him for help to win the LOTTO 6/49 JACKPOT via WhatsApp: +1 920 474 6543, he said I can only win with the right numbers which will be revealed to him by his gods after casting a lotto spell. I did as he instructed and the spell was cast, he gave me the numbers and said I should go and play without fear. I bought the ticket and played. It was very shocking and surprising when I discovered that all the numbers Dr. Bubuza revealed to me matched all six winning numbers in the April 6 draw. I became the winner of $18.7 million with the help of Dr. Bubuza numbers. I will continue to appreciate him; DO you need help to win the lottery ? Contact him too via email: bubuzaspelltemple@hotmail.com or WhatsApp: +1 920 474 6543
