Reasons Reason,
Reason had his reasons,
For the way that he lived,
For moonshine and whiskey,
Oh the things that he did,
Now Reason had a temper,
He would lose all control
Till Agnes sewed him in the sheets,
And beat him with a hoe,
Then Reason had a reason,
When she broke all of his bones,
Stopped him from drinkin,
And made her happy home,
Agnes gave Reason,
A reason to be sweet,
With a little time between the sheets,
And a little elbow grease,
Yes Reason has his reasons,
For the way that he lived,
Agnes has her hoe,
To make sure that he did!

Nice Lyric Donn - Naturally. I deplore the implied violence (ahem) but I really love the rhythm. Can kind of hear a chunky one-and-two-and-one-and-two southern boogie guitar riff in my head. Is the first line just the title repeated?

Yes,
I should have spaced it better .
Lyric is from a short story I wrote, which is actually based on the true story of my great uncle Reason...
