Lyrics

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, nobody paved my way Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint 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 passed 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' ass every day in the Tennessee sun Talk about that dream seemed out of reach For a piece of shit 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 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, nobody paved my way Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint Well, I spent a many night in the county jail Down on my luck and drunk as hell Nobody accepted my calls Nobody 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 keep 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 nobody 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 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, nobody paved my way Had a lotta good times and a few heartbreaks I've always been a sinner, never claimed to be a saint
