Bible Versus

When you're from down around where I grew up

You go down in that river then you come back up

Then one night in field 'round a bonfire lit

You get passed a jar, and you take a little sip

So here I sit

It's like oh, oh, oh

That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh

But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh

Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me

High and over empty

Bible versus whiskey

Some nights it's them words in red

That helps me, heals me, clears my head

But then other nights when I ain't that tough

It's straight ninety-proof in a Dixie cup

As I fill 'er up

It's like oh, oh, oh

That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh

But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh

Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me

High and over empty

Bible versus whiskey

That devil right here on my shoulder

Keeps remindin' me that I can't hold her

It's like oh, oh, oh

That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh

But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh

Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me

High and over empty

And it's like oh, oh, oh

That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh

But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh

Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me

High and over empty
