Rodney Crowell - Fate's Right Hand Lyrics






Cool as a rule you don't learn in no school
You can't brown nose the teacher from a dunce hat stool
It's the hum and the rhythm of the birds and the bees
The momma's and the poppa's and the monkeys in the trees
Brothers and the sisters living life on the street
Play the hunch pull the punch you'll never get beat
By the junk food tattooed white dude true blued
Honky with an attitude coming unglued

Fate's right hand...I don't understand at all

Billy loves women like a junky loves dope
Give him just enough rope, the monkey's gonna choke
She's a Bill Blass combo maxed out mombo
D.K.N.Y. caught him in a lie
Ken Starr word man were talking absurd
Spending forty million dollars just to give the man the bird
He's a king she's a queen the rap won't stick
Get it on with a rubber and you won't get sick

Fate's right hand...I don't understand at all

Redrum dot com dim sum smart bombs
Double cappuccino and a heart like a tom tom
Ozone long gone that's it I quit
Natural inclination says enough of this
brat pack black jack heart attack crack
We need another news channel like a hole in the back
There's a 187 on the 405
We all go to heaven on a hard disk drive

Fate's right hand...I don't understand at all

Hard rain fish seine hurricane Jane
Don't forget about Carla when you're talkin' about the poon tang
Slow song on the bone rec hall dance
Double date Debbie with a pole in my pants
First comes love like it always did
Or we wouldn't be talkin' bout The Houston kid
Po-dunk piss-chunk old dead skunk drunk
Trot-line Freddy's got his dogs in the trunk
Fate's right hand...I don't under stand at all
Fate's right hand...man I don't understand at all

    "we all go to Heaven on a hard disc drive" Most amazing lyric I've heard since forever.

    Great all-around songwriting (as always) from Rodney. The flow and bite of these lyrics is quite the combination of catchy and thoughtful.

    This song to me kind of comes off as a more modern version of "We Didn't Start The Fire".

    J.... J....

    ...or Bellamy Bro. Fires Of Time... like those songs its DEEP and applies to right NOW!!!

  14. S.... P....

    Just heard this today first time. Go Rodney

  15. M.... R....

    I've seen him twice at Gruene Hall in Gruene, Texas and you won't see a better performance.

    M.... R....

    Oh, man, I bet that was killer. The music scene there is why I would move to that area.

    M.... R....

    Pl need to listen to the words.great

  16. J.... ....

    This video has been online for more than 5 years and has gotten less than 10,000 views.
    I don't understand at all.

    J.... ....

    Yeah RC is an under appreciated genius

    J.... ....

    It took a Rodney Crowell concert Sunday to get me looking up everything he's done. Lyrics in this are profound. Want to listen over and over.

    J.... ....

    Too rock for country, too country for rock n roll. Cosmic American music as Gram called it. That is the gem that is Rodney Crowell.

    J.... ....

    It's up to 83,000 as of July, 2019.

    J.... ....

    @Robert Gibson Johnny Cash view him as one of the GREATEST American songwriters. They remain close even after Rodney & Rosanne split.

  17. J.... ....

    Rodney is under-rated.

  18. G.... A....

    Why are they advertising Nicki Minaj on a Rodney Crowell video? As if anyone who listens to Rodney Crowell would be interested in that disgusting bullshit.
