| I’m high on the hog
|
| Of this freewill baptist church
|
| Somewhere above Biloxi
|
| Down here in the delta
|
| I’ve spent more days a runnin'
|
| Hidin' and more runnin'
|
| Looking for the answers
|
| And trying to find myself some shelter
|
| Well I’m staring at the ceiling
|
| Of Old Sapwood and Ten
|
| Takes me back to basics, y’all
|
| I got to turn myself on in
|
| Yes I turn myself in
|
| Turn myself in
|
| A lifetime of sin
|
| It’s time to repent
|
| Ain’t going back to that hellhole that I’ve been living in
|
| I’m gonna hand my soul back over
|
| And turn myself on in, Yes
|
| Well I never robbed that farmer
|
| Up in Franklin county
|
| Well I was lookin for some work
|
| He was lookin someone to blame
|
| I still may hear soul guilty
|
| Cause I never saw the signs
|
| I never heard the answers
|
| That’s my ball and chain
|
| I climbed up on that pew
|
| Fell right down again
|
| That cold, hard,??? |
| saved me y’all
|
| I got to turn myself on in
|
| Yes I turn myself in
|
| Turn myself in
|
| Well that lifetime of sin
|
| It’s time to repent
|
| Ain’t going back to that hellhole that I’ve been living in
|
| I’m gonna hand my soul back over
|
| And turn myself on in
|
| I don’t want to ever see that warden
|
| He’s just as guilty as me
|
| I hope one day he’ll find this church
|
| And get down on his knees
|
| And maybe he’ll turn himself in
|
| Turn himself in
|
| Well that lifetime of sin
|
| It’s time to repent
|
| Ain’t going back to that hellhole I’ve been living in
|
| I’m gonna hand my soul back over
|
| Turn myself on in
|
| Yes, I’m gonna hand my soul back over
|
| Turn myself on in
|
| Yes, I’m gonna hand my soul back over
|
| Turn myself on in |
