The Lord Loves the Drinkin' Man |
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land |
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine |
| Any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine |
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify |
| I was speakin' in tongues when I came home last night |
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin |
| But I know the Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| Well, the preacher man, he told me, «Boy you ain’t no good» |
| «Devil's gonna getcha, best start actin' like you should» |
| «All the cold beer and bright lights, stayin' out all night» |
| «Good Book, it tells me, boy, your soul’s gonna burn» |
| Momma said, «Son, you’re headin' down the wrong road |
| «They don’t let honky-tonkers up in Heaven, I’ve been told.» |
| Don’t you worry, Momma, I’ll see you up in Heaven |
| And I’ve been thinking 'bout it and I’ve come to this conclusion, now |
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land |
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine |
| Any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine |
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify |
| I was speakin' in tongues when I came home last night |
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin |
| But I know the Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| Well, my Daddy said, «Son you’re living your life all wrong» |
| «Lightnin's gonna strike you down before too long» |
| «That man upstairs, he don’t like what you do» |
| «When you reach those Pearly Gates, you ain’t getting through» |
| Well, I’ve been thinkin', got a brand new plan |
| I’m gonna start a little Church down at the Stumble Inn |
| Hell, that’s right, I’m gonna start my own religion |
| We’ll be drinkin' and a-dancin' at the church of Hank Williams, yeah |
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land |
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine |
| Any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine |
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify |
| I was speaking in tongues when I came home last night |
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin |
| But I know the Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| Yeah, he does |
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man |
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land |
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine |
| Well, any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine |
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify |
| I was speaking in tongues when I came home last night |
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin |
| But I know the Lord loves |
| I hope he does |
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man |
