Ry Cooder - Which Came First lyrics

Your rating:


(Willie Dixon & Ry Cooder) 



You may be a hater, you may be a lover 

You can bet your life one destroys the other 

I don't know how it all began, which came first 

The egg or the hen 



The moon comes up and the sun goes down 

This old world keeps spinning around 

Just as sure as the day turns into the night 

What you do in the dark will turn up in the light 

Masked man ridin' out across the land 

Spreading destruction and moving his hand 

He carries a ray-gun, shoots from the hip 

Got your past in his pocket, your future's in his grip 



You may be a hater, you may be a lover 

You bet your life one destroys the other 

I don't know how it all began, which came first 

The egg or the hen 



Now, you bet your life without a doubt 

Asking a masked man to leat you out 

He's got you so tight that you can't even see 

That ray-gun is pointed right at you and me 



You won't see it coming 

You won't feel the blow 

You won't get no warning 

You won't never know 

You can't start it sooner 

And fix it up later 

And you ain't going to read about it in the newspaper 



Rich or poor, mighty and meek 

Don't need no ticket, you've all got a seat 

High up on the mountain, low down in the alley 

We'll all watch the world turn into death valley 



You may be a hater, you may be a lover 

You can bet your life one destroys the other 

I don't know how it all began, which came first 

The egg or the hen 



Better shake my hand 'cause time is winding up 

Shake your neighbor's hand 'cause time is winding up 



You may be a hater, you may be a lover 

You can bet your life one destroys the other 

I don't know how it all began, which came first 

The egg or the hen
