Jason Eady - God Fearing Blues lyrics

rate me

got baptized when I was ten

I got a little dirty so I did it again

The preacher said son why are you back so soon

I said "let's get this done I've got things to do"

I was saved in the morning and back that afternoon

Chorus:

I sing hallelujah and I shout amen

I wrestle with the devil and sometimes I win

Sometimes I lose

Well I hate to disappoint you but I've got these

No good living, hard time loving, roadhouse singing, good time god fearing blues

I turned eighteen and I left home

God blessed my soul and I was ready to roam

I got to the desert and I turned around

Nobody ever told me about the things I found

I went down to the river, this time I thought I might drown

(Chorus)

I keep my hands in my pocket and keep my thoughts to myself

I keep my liquor on the very top shelf

It's good to meet you preacher but I just can't stay

I'm going to get to heaven but I'm going my way

I may see you Sunday morning or I'll see you on judgment day

(Chorus)

I've got these no good living, hard time loving, roadhouse singing, good time god fearing blues
