[Verse 1: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
My jail shoes on
The well-kept cemetery lawn
Both of them weeping
Their one good son now was gone
(Ooh, ooh)
The irony
To see my dad down on his knees
Crying out to Jesus
But Lord I've always done what's right
(Ooh, ooh)
[Chorus: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
And all the while
The good Lord smiled
And looked the other way
(Ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
When we were kids
I did my best to make them proud
It just wasn't in me
I could not fly straight to save my life
[Chorus: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
And all the while
The good Lord smiled
And looked the other way
My jail shoes on
The well-kept cemetery lawn
Both of them weeping
Their one good son now was gone
(Ooh, ooh)
The irony
To see my dad down on his knees
Crying out to Jesus
But Lord I've always done what's right
(Ooh, ooh)
[Chorus: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
And all the while
The good Lord smiled
And looked the other way
(Ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
When we were kids
I did my best to make them proud
It just wasn't in me
I could not fly straight to save my life
[Chorus: Julien Baker & Andy Hull]
And all the while
The good Lord smiled
And looked the other way
