The Lord loves the drinkin' man
|
Sends honkey tonk angels to the promise land
|
I hear that he can turn water to wine
|
Any man that can do that is a good friend of mine
|
I've been baptized in beer, I'm here to testify
|
I was speaking in tongues when I came home last night
|
Some folks say I'm livin' in sin, but I know
|
|
The Lord loves the drinkin' man
|
The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good
|
The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should
|
All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night
|
The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn
|
My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road
|
They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told
|
Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven
|
I've been thinking 'bout it and I've come to this conclusion now,
|
|
The Lord loves the drinkin' man
|
The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good
|
The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should
|
All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night
|
The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn
|
My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road
|
They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told
|
Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven
|
|
My daddy says son you're living your life all wrong
|
Lighting's gonna strike you down before too long
|
That man upstairs he don't like what you do
|
When you reach those pearly gates you ain't getting through
|
Well I've been thinkin', I've got a brand new plan
|
I'm gonna start a little church down at the Stumble Inn
|
Yea that's right I'm gonna start my own religion
|
We'll be drinkin' and dancin' at the church of Hank Williams yea,
|
|
The Lord loves the drinkin' man
|
The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good
|
The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should
|
All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night
|
The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn
|
My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road
|
They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told
|
Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven
|
|
Oh, yea I know
|
The Lord loves, I hope he does, the Lord loves the drinkin' man
|
