The Christ and The Crook |
| Anna Jean, darling, don’t leave me |
| On the count of my drinking |
| Or the fact that I don’t like the church |
| But still love the Lord |
| Please believe me, I know that Reverend |
| Twice as well as you do |
| And the church will be better |
| Long after I’m gone |
| I ain’t about to go looking for answers |
| In the body of Christ, it’s riddled with cancer |
| If I wanna get to the truth I’ll just get out the book |
| And if you have ears to hear then listen |
| And eyes to see all the lies you’ve been missing |
| There’s just as much truth in the Christ |
| As there is in the Crook |
| Anna Jean darling don’t leave me |
| On the count of my dreaming |
| Sometimes the dreams like a horseman |
| On a mare in the night |
| Fumbling his way through the forest |
| Tryna find a road that’s true |
| Sometimes he wakes in a clearing |
| In the cool morning light |
| So I ain’t about to go looking for answers |
| In the body of Christ, it’s riddled with cancer |
| If I wanna get to the truth I’ll just get out the book |
| And if you have ears to hear then listen |
| And eyes to see all the lies you’ve been missing |
| There’s just as much truth in the Christ |
| As there is in the Crook |
| So Anna Jean, darling, don’t leave me |
