I went out drinking with a reaper
And man it did get live
You can count it by the liter
It's kinda hard to quantify
Come morning he was shakin'
And he began to sigh
I said "man you gotta keep it together
Or you gonna be outta time"
Oh Pale Rider
You need a hella talkin-to
Why don't you leave me be?
I got things to do
Oh Pale Rider
The missus has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Three days later he came knockin'
And I was so surprised
He wasn't offerin' a coffin
He was dead of social lines
I'm on a vision quest
And everybody's a buddy
Ain't I just the best?
It's so damn exciting
Oh Pale Rider
You need a hella talkin-to
Why don't you leave me be?
I got things to do
Oh Pale Rider
The missus has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Man it did get live
Man it did get live
Man it, it did
Man it did get live
Man it, it did
Man it did get live
Oh Pale Rider
You need a hella talkin-to
Why don't you leave me be?
I got things to do
Oh Pale Rider
The missus has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
