Bottles and Bibles |
Bottles and bibles |
Litter the floor |
An all night revival |
Passed out around 4 |
Now the preacher’s been drinkin' |
But it’s hard not to do |
Since she ran out the screen door |
And swore they were through |
Oh Lord, if you care, send a spirit down here |
Cause the preacher’s been drinkin' again |
But it’s a hard way to go, on the straight and narrow |
When everybody in town points a finger at you |
But they ain’t had to walk with the weight that you’ve hauled |
They don’t know you at all, but they think that they do |
He didn’t believe her |
He just knew she’d come home |
But the nights kept a' crawlin' |
As he laid there alone |
And he’d call up to heaven |
And he’d hope and he’d pray |
But the line’s always busy |
Since he went astray |
Oh Lord, if you care, won’t you answer his prayers |
Cause the preacher’s been drinkin' again |
But it’s a hard way to go, on the straight and narrow |
When everybody in town points a finger at you |
But they ain’t had to walk with the weight that you’ve hauled |
They don’t know you at all, but they think that they do |
Now the bottles and bibles |
Broke out in a fight |
The whiskey fought hard, son |
And took the victory that night |
They found him a' layin' |
Face down by the stairs |
Dressed up for a sermon |
Nobody would hear |
Oh Lord, if you care, send your angels down here |
Cause the preacher’s been drinkin' again |
But it’s a hard way to go, on the straight and narrow |
When everybody in town points a finger at you |
But they ain’t had to walk with the weight that you’ve hauled |
They don’t know you at all, but they think that they do |
