Tryin' To Go To Church

(앨범: Where Country Grows - 2011)

I've been trying to go to church
I've been trying to do better
But me and Saturday night we always wake up together
I know what I oughta be doing, but I keep on losing track
I try to stay outta trouble, but the devil's dragging me right back

And I know what I should be putting in the offering plate
But I doubled down in Biloxi on a couple of eights
I kept hoping and a-praying but the dealer kept a-saying bust
See the chips were going down while the sun was coming up

Amen, hallelujah
I keep on saying "Lord I'm gonna get to ya"

I've been trying to go to church
I've been trying to do better
But my friends are at the river and it's real pretty weather
Laying on the sandbar thinking, maybe I can make it Wednesday night
Then here comes that husband Steven Hoefer and I reckon I'm gonna have to fight

Amen, hallelujah
I keep on a saying, "Lord I'm gonna get to ya"

I've been trying to go to church
I've been trying to do better
But me and Saturday night we always wake up together
I know what I oughta be doing, but I keep on losing track
I try to stay outta trouble, but the devil's dragging me right back

Lord help me
