Now got offices in town : resident out on *Sentry* Road
He got a nice little lake : right inside the grove
But you know I like Mr Clark : yes he really is my friend
He say if I just stay out of the [grave, graveyard] : he 
see that I won't go to the pen
Now Mr Clark is a lawyer : his youngest brother is too
When the battles get hot : he tell him just what to do
Now he lawyers for the rich : he lawyers for the poor
He don't try to rob nobody : just bring *along to the 
store*
Now once I got in trouble : you know I was going to take 
a ride
He didn't let it reach the courthouse : he kept it on the 
outside
Now Mr Clark is a good lawyer : he good as I ever seen
He the first man that proved : that water run upstream
