Take Out Some Insurance Lyrics

A man knocked upon my door said "Don't you know you're gonna die some day And I got a plan for you man, for when you pass away We'll give to your mother, your kids and your wife And all you have to give in return is your life" Take out some insurance, insurance today For tomorrow will come and take us away Two men were gamblin' in a parlour one night When a woman walked in with her dress up so tight She asked the two gentlemen would they fight for her name They got up and shot her and went back to their game Take out some insurance, insurance today For tomorrow will come and take us away This ain't no sad song, don't cry in your beer For one day will come and we won't be here Somebody else will take up our game Different place, different name Take out some insurance, insurance today For tomorrow will come and take us away For tomorrow will come and take us away
