about

How much powder does it take...
before big trouble...
lights a fuse...
and everything blows?...

lyrics

Powder Keg

[1] Went down to th’ factory…
factory…gates was locked…
Foreman said now listen, son…
all them factory wheels has stopped…

I said Lawd Lawdy lawd…y’ know I ain’t…too proud to beg…
I got me a...lit fuse a windin’…straight to that...powder keg…

[2] Caught m’ woman this mornin’…
she was on th’ telephone…
She said I’m leavin’ ya jack’…
it’s time I's movin’ on…

Oh Lawd Lawdy lawd…y’ know I ain’t…too proud to beg…
Got me a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that powder keg…

Chorus

Ya know th’ fuse keeps getting’ shorter...as each day goes by…
And th’ powders getting’ deeper...so tinder dry…
I swear just one spark...could start a glow…
If I turn my back…it just might blow

solo - guitar

[3] When to leave this city…
when to leave this town...
Hard luck an' trouble...
ya know they always hunt me down…

I said Lawd Lawdy lawd…y’ know I ain’t…too proud to beg…
I got me a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that powder keg…

[4] Went down to th’ factory…
Factory…gates was locked…
Union boss said listen, son…
Ahh, this factoriesjust gonna rot…

I said Lawd Lawdy lawd…y’ know I ain’t…too proud to beg…
I got me a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that powder keg…

Chorus

Ya know th’ fuse keeps getting’ shorter...as each day goes by…
And th’ powders getting’ deeper...so tinder dry…
I swear just one spark...could start a glow…
If I turn my back…it just might blow

[2] Caught m’ woman this mornin’…
She was on th’ telephone…
She said I’m leavin’ ya jack’…
it’s time I's movin’ on…

I said Lawd...Lawdy lawd…y’ know I ain’t…too proud to beg…
Got me a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that... powder keg…
that's right...
I got me...a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that...powder keg…
one more time...
You know...I got me a lit fuse a windin’…straight to that powder keg…
