One More Payment - Clint Black

Ain’t that the way the luck goes

Seems like it never can be found

Break my back to make those bank notes

Payin' on an almost always broken down

Fix that car nine ways to Sunday

And it won’t start again when Monday rolls around

Ain’t that the way the rent goes

Seems like it’s never goin' down

And that banker’s bound to foreclose

At this rate, I’ll lose my interest in this town

Paint the walls, mend the windows

'Bout the time the roof comes crumblin' to the ground

I’ve been footin' the bill for some time

Stretchin' my credit out of line

Well I may not get ahead but now I won’t be far behind

I’ve got one more payment and it’s mine

We’re gonna swing it

Ain’t that the way the heart goes

Seems they just attack without a sign

My mind’s been on vacation

And my body’s been workin' overtime

But I’ve done all that I can do

There’s just one more balance due before it’s mine

I’ve been footin' the bill for some time

Step by step and line by dotted line

Well I haven’t bought the farm yet but I’m not that far behind

I’ve got one more payment and it’s mine

One more payment and it’s mine

One more payment and it’s mine

One more, one more, one more Lord
