cody hibbard - kill the messenger lyrics
[verse 1]
i always thought i’d ride the line
between holy and too far gone
i didn’t think i’d see a time
when a prayer didn’t seem so strong
i tried to never miss a sermon
i guess she wasn’t trying to too
bible studies at a fancy mansion
what’s a guy suppose to do?
[verse 2]
well, talk around town blew through so quick
a man of god with another man’s wife
i never would’ve of imagined it
i’d have to take the messenger’s life
so i read a few chapters to know my soul
wasn’t running straight for a trap
’cause when i close that door to my old ford
the golden road’s the only way back
[chorus]
lord forgive me
for i don’t know what i’m ’bout to do
guide my hand, let your will be done
’cause the devil’s sure on the loose
he’s thumped more than his bible
just a little too hard
i must’ve missed that in mine
didn’t catch that part
he broke both our rules
now i gotta act
and send him right back
[verse 3]
that offering plate paid for a real nice house
it’s a shame i had to kick that front door down
got lost a few times trying to find that room
where i knew i’d catch them two
when i busted in, it was a sight to see
just her and him and god and me
laid the hammer back on that 45
we said one more prayer before goodbye sayin’
[chorus]
lord forgive me
for i don’t know what i’m ’bout to do
guide my hand, let your will be done
’cause the devil’s sure on the loose
he’s thumped more than his bible just a little too hard
i must’ve missed that in mine
didn’t catch that part
he broke both our rules
now i gotta act
and send him right back
[bridge]
thou shall not covet
and thou shall not steal
shall not take another man’s wife
’cause thou shalt be k!lled
i still read my bible in this concrete cell
and feel right about what i done
’cause this town got word where i sent him to
guess i was the messenger all along
