The Battle (feat. Ryan Adams)

When I am buried Don't visit my grave God cannot save me From the sins I've embraced Pay your respects To that old liquor store Where I won the battle And I lost the war You mine for silver And I pan for gold You keep yours hidden When all mine is sold You tell the truth And I lie and I barter And I drink and I cry And I pass out at night I've always cheated But I've never stolen I've wanted things that You ain't never thought of Pay your respects To the gamblin' score Where I won the battle And I lost the war They always told me When death came my sins would be Cast down, forgotten Laid to rest with my body Pay your respects To the old church-house door Where I won the battle And I lost the war
