Tear This Cabin Down |
| You know people might just say anything |
| To try and save their skin |
| And the bible says we must stand alone |
| ‘cause we’re damn sure gonna sin |
| And there’s stories to help us walk that line |
| Commandments to get our crowns |
| But if the truth was knowed about us all |
| We’d have to tear that cabin down |
| Tear this cabin down |
| And start all over again |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Only god knows where we’ve been |
| Tear this cabin down |
| There’s a hell for us all |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Well cain rose up to slay abel |
| So they ran him out of town |
| And deep down in our souls and hearts |
| Old cain is still around |
| And he likes to tell us secrets |
| He likes to whisper in our ears |
| That if the people knowed |
| All the meanness we’ve done |
| They’d throw us outta here |
| They’ll tear this cabin down |
| And start all over again |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Only god knows where we’ve been |
| Tear this cabin down |
| There’s a hell somewhere for us all |
| Tear this cabin down |
| So if you want to get into heaven |
| You better get down on your knees |
| And try to be a better man |
| Than the one you used to be |
| And don’t go meddlin' with somebody else |
| It’s hard telling what you’ll find |
| And if the truth was knowed about us all |
| We’d have to stay here for all time |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Oh lord let me be the best that i can be |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Oh lord, let the truth be what i see |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Yeah lord, there must be a heaven for us all |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Oh lord let me be the best that i can be |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Oh lord, let the truth be what i see |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Yeah lord, there must be a heaven for us all |
| Tear this cabin down |
| Tear this cabin down |
