| The Lord loves a drinkin' man
|
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land
|
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine
|
| Any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine
|
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify
|
| I was speakin' in tongues when I came home last night
|
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin
|
| But I know the Lord loves a drinkin' man
|
| Well, the preacher man, he told me, «Boy you ain’t no good»
|
| «Devil's gonna getcha, best start actin' like you should»
|
| «All the cold beer and bright lights, stayin' out all night»
|
| «Good Book, it tells me, boy, your soul’s gonna burn»
|
| Momma said, «Son, you’re headin' down the wrong road
|
| «They don’t let honky-tonkers up in Heaven, I’ve been told.»
|
| Don’t you worry, Momma, I’ll see you up in Heaven
|
| And I’ve been thinking 'bout it and I’ve come to this conclusion, now
|
| The Lord loves a drinkin' man
|
| He sent honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land
|
| I hear that he can turn the water to wine
|
| Any man that can do that, oh, he’s good friend of mine
|
| I’ve been baptized in beer, I’m here to testify
|
| I was speakin' in tongues when I came home last night
|
| Some folks say I’m livin' in sin
|
| But I know the Lord loves a drinkin' man
|
| Well, my Daddy said, «Son you’re living your life all wrong»
|
| «Lightnin'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', got a brand new plan
|
| I’m gonna start a little Church down at the Stumble Inn
|
| Hell, that’s right, I’m gonna start my own religion
|
| We’ll be drinkin' and a-dancin' at the church of Hank Williams, yeah
|
