john baumann - bible belt lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
born in amarillo when reagan wore the crown
to a couple of houston lawyers who had just come to town
momma got a job with campbell and gray
while daddy was a runnin’ for the county da
he went around town in a blue lapel pin
but everybody knows a democrat can’t win in the bible belt

sundays we would all go to church
sing us some hymns and go to luby’s afterwards
talk about the sermon and talk about the sky
over a luanne platter and a pecan pie
it was like church and luby’s could save us from our sins
or maybe we were just tryin’ to fit in to the bible belt

[chorus]
it’s a real fine place to see the lord
starin’ down at you from a big billboard
a hundred thousand churches from east to west
you can tune in on sunday, you televangelists
well some call it heaven, i call it h-ll
livin’ in west texas
bible belt

[verse 2]
when the time came i went off to texas tech
but i made bad grades writing fraternity checks
so i transferred out to south plains in levelland
started makin’ a’s so i started up a band
n-body would ever come to my shows
i guess they don’t like that ol’ rock ‘n roll in the bible belt

[chorus]
it’s a real fine place to see the lord
starin’ down at you from a big billboard
a hundred thousand churches from east to west
you can tune in on sunday, you televangelists
well some call it heaven, i call it h-ll
livin’ in west texas
bible belt

[solo]

[verse 3]
so i’m sittin’ right in the liquor store line
had to leave at eleven just to make it in time
i don’t understand how the county’s not wet
it would help with the drought, it would help with the debt
but up here change and time move slow
it’s just one more thing they can veto

in the bible belt

in the bible belt

in the bible belt
in the bible belt
