Hell of a Mess

The devil’s in the kitchen

cooking up a mess again

When it comes to the cleaning

there will be a lot to lift

Outside the water’s gonna rise to the doorstep

Just like the rising sun there is no forgiveness

Oh it’s a hell of a mess I’m in

Lord help me Jesus

Can you get me through this

There’s thundering clouds hanging over our house

I can smell the rain

I can hear the train

Oh it’s a Hell of a Mess I’m in

I feel it in my bones

like the sea is coming after me in my home

There’s gonna be a flood

Taking everything that I own

I can smell the rain

I can hear the train

I got my back up against a track

I been dancing with the devil

Forgive me Momma

I got myself into trouble

Life is but a game we’re playing

You gamble with your soul at your very wakin'

Find your voice and set it free

Find your voice and set it free

Lord help me Jesus

I’m doubting everything that I know

Water made it’s way to the pillows

A drowning place to lay a head

We rotted out the roots of the willows

God help us both our love is dead
