Willie Nelson The Git Go Lyrics

horus
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
Woman shined the apple, and the man had to take a bite
Anything that good, God knows, just had to be right
Well they woke up naked with a big headache,
He been done in by a slippery snake,
a man and a woman get to live a while and then they die
horus
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
Politicians make promises that they can't keep
They keep printin' money 'till they get in way too deep
It's the same old lesson, they never learn,
They're too busy workin' on their next term
Politicians keep makin' fools out of you and me
horus
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
Money breeds war, as long as there's a man alive
Rich kids go to college, and the poor kids fight
High-rollers cr*p out every time, roll a soldier's bones like loaded dice
War is the beast that makes every mother cry
horus
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
He told the truth, and they hung him up to die
The son of God who created you and I
He said it in the Good Book with letters in red
But we keep on forgettin' every thing He said
Jesus Christ hung on the cross for you and I
horus
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
It's been that way since the git go,
It's been that way since the git go
Well, it's been that way since the git go,
Lord it's always been that way
