Straight And Narrow |
| The trouble with the straight and the narrow |
| Is it’s so thin, I keep sliding off to the side |
| And the Devil makes good use of these hands of mine |
| And if Jesus is the straight path that saves |
| Then I’m condemned to live my whole life on the curb |
| On the crossroad to the Devil, I’ll dwell and I’ll count my years |
| You know that I got a little something I should say |
| I guess that I’m just so easily led astray |
| It’s alright because I know my own way back home from here |
| And I don’t fall off the wagon, you know |
| I take a dive and go as deep as I can go |
| Don’t hold your breath because I’m coming up slow this time |
| And… |
| The trouble with the straight and the narrow |
| Is it’s so thin, I keep sliding off to the side |
| And the Devil makes good use of these hands of mine |
| You know that I got a little problem or two |
| I guess that I keep on taking a few |
| I’ve been told it’s not the best thing that I can do right now |
| And I don’t go looking for my sins you know |
| They come out waiting and I just get on and go |
| Don’t hold your breath because I’m coming up slow this time |
| And… |
| The trouble with the straight and the narrow |
| Is it’s so thin, I keep sliding off to the side |
| And the Devil makes good use of these hands of mine |
| And if Jesus is the straight path that saves |
| Then I’m condemned to live my whole life on the curb |
| On the crossroad to the Devil, I’ll dwell and I’ll count my years |
| And the trouble with the straight and the narrow |
| Is it’s so thin, I keep sliding off to the side |
| And the Devil makes, the Devil makes |
| Good use of these hands of mine |
