lyrics

Verse 1: Dear Ma, wake up Pa; there’s a man in the backyard- I think it might be God. I didn’t know what to do until he pulled out his bible and walked on water, too…

Chorus: He said he’s looking for a place to stay; Heaven’s rent is hard to pay when you’re the Devil’s only friend…

Verse 2: And now he moved in except for the weekends. That’s when he’s out riding Harleys, out there chasing hens. We’ve been drinking since half-past noon. He’s got some stories about baby Jesus and Mother Mary, too…

Chorus: And now he’s looking for a place to stay; Heaven’s rent is hard to pay when you’re the Devil’s only friend…

Verse 3: I guess it worked out; sleeps on the pull-out. Said God’s a pretty damn good roommate, except for when he drinks. Yeah, God’s a pretty damn good roommate, except for when he drinks…

Chorus: And now he’s looking for a place to stay; Heaven’s rent is hard to pay when you’re the Devil’s only friend…

Ted Z and the Wranglers, of Southern California, deliver outlaw country-charged rock. Ted's catchy story-songs are fully- realized tales of love, regret, getting older, and getting in trouble. The band stirs up its Americana influences, featuring quick picking and bluesy slide guitar over galloping train beats and swinging shuffles. ... more
