upchurch & bottleneck - lord knows lyrics

[chorus: justin adams]
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, n0body paved my way
had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks
i’ve always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint

[verse 1: upchurch]
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 p-ssed 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’ -ss every day in the tennessee sun
talk about that dream seemed out of reach
for a piece of sh-t 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

[verse 2: bottleneck]
well i spent a many night in the county jail
down on my luck and drunk as h-ll
n0body accepted my calls
n0body 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 kept 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 n0body 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
