Lord Knows (feat. Justin Adams)

Lyrics

Lord knows I ain't no saint
 And I only dress up on Sunday
 And on Friday night, the devil's in my veins
 While the quarters in my pocket make the jukebox sing
 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way
 Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
 I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
 Ain't always been the guy that I am today
 Me and Drew used to break into Mustangs
 In the middle of the night in Kingston Springs
 Then karma come around and crossed my way
 Grandpaw passed I got a little wild
 Started inkin' up my body every check I got
 Just sittin' in the barn with the lights cut off
 Wonderin' where I'd end up in the four years time
 And I dropped out of school 'cause it wasn't for me
 My senior year, I was slingin' them drywall sheets
 Startin' up that truck about five in the mornin'
 Bustin' ass every day in the Tennessee sun
 Talk about that dream seemed out of reach
 For a piece of shit old sinner like me
 Thank God that he put me on my own two feet
 That's why I pray before I go to sleep
 Lord knows I ain't no saint
 And I only dress up on Sunday
 And on Friday night, the devil's in my veins
 While the quarters in my pocket make the jukebox sing
 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way
 Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
 I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
 Well, I spent a many night in the county jail
 Down on my luck and drunk as hell
 Nobody accepted my calls
 Nobody is payin' my bail
 Well, I had to swallow my pride
 Pick myself up and look inside
 Facin' life eye to eye
 I swear to God, this my last time
 Something deep down keep callin' me
 Holdin' me and I wanna be
 Better than the man I used to be
 And I wanna give it all to me
 Ain't nobody ever paved my way
 And the Lord knows I ain't never been a saint
 He guards my soul every day
 And I gotta give him thanks for these better days
 Lord knows I ain't no saint
 And I only dress up on Sunday
 And on Friday night, the devil's in my veins
 While the quarters in my pocket make the jukebox sing
 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way
 Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
 I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
 
 Lord knows I ain't no saint
 And I only dress up on Sunday
 And on Friday night, the devil's in my veins
 While the quarters in my pocket make the jukebox sing
 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way
 Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
 I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
 Ain't always been the guy that I am today
 Me and Drew used to break into Mustangs
 In the middle of the night in Kingston Springs
 Then karma come around and crossed my way
 Grandpaw passed I got a little wild
 Started inkin' up my body every check I got
 Just sittin' in the barn with the lights cut off
 Wonderin' where I'd end up in the four years time
 And I dropped out of school 'cause it wasn't for me
 My senior year, I was slingin' them drywall sheets
 Startin' up that truck about five in the mornin'
 Bustin' ass every day in the Tennessee sun
 Talk about that dream seemed out of reach
 For a piece of shit old sinner like me
 Thank God that he put me on my own two feet
 That's why I pray before I go to sleep
 Lord knows I ain't no saint
 And I only dress up on Sunday
 And on Friday night, the devil's in my veins
 While the quarters in my pocket make the jukebox sing
 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way

 A lonesome song on how I lost my way
 Down a one lane path, nobody paved my way
 Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
 I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
