Cincinnati Dancing Pig Lyrics

As you travel down life′s road do you pack a heavy load
That the devil and his sins have laid on you?
Why that load that you pack you can shake right off your back
Let the Lord's lariat drop over you

Oh the Lord′s lariat has a small loop
But he'll catch you if you walk just right
The old black devil's got a hot branding iron
Ready to cinch you up tight
Don′t turn to the left, nor turn to the right
If you let him he will show you through
Look up to the light and pray with all your might
And let the Lord′s lariat drop over you

In this world of grief and strife why do people spend their life
In godless ways and sinful things to do?
Better get out of Satan's fold, get where Jesus can take hold
And let his shining lariat drop over you

Oh, the Lord′s lariat has a small loop
But he'll catch you if you walk just right
The old black devil′s got a hot branding iron
Ready to cinch you up tight
Don't turn to the left, nor turn to the right
If you let him he will show you through
Look up to the light and pray with all your might
And let the Lord′s lariat drop over you

Oh, the time will come my friend when you've got to face the end
Will he look at you and say, "I know not thee?"
Let's all drop down on our knees and pray, "Dear Lord, if you please
Let your shining lariat drop over me"

Oh, the Lord′s lariat has a small loop
But he′ll catch you if you walk just right
The old black devil's got a hot branding iron
Ready to cinch you up tight
Don′t turn to the left, nor turn to the right
If you let him he will show you through
Look up to the light and pray with all your might
And let the Lord's lariat drop over you

Let the Lord′s lariat drop over you
