[Verse 1]
Bottles and bibles
Litter the floor
An all night revival
Passed out around four
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh Lord, if you care, send a spirit down here
'Cause the preacher's been drinkin' again
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
And 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
Bottles and bibles
Litter the floor
An all night revival
Passed out around four
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh Lord, if you care, send a spirit down here
'Cause the preacher's been drinkin' again
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
And 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
