aint enough Jesus to wash away my sins
I'm alone in this alone as I ever been

aint enough of my daddy in my day in my day
aint enough of my brothers voice in my ear

Gettin' Richer Blues
03:19
|
|||
ain't no hope
ain't no god
ain't no more excuses
so what you got
ain't not truth
ain't no lies
ain't no hope my lord
only more advice
take a look around
tell me what you see
just a bunch of hard timing motherfuckers
like you and me
the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder
life is long
life is hard
it ain't called the Dirty South for nothing
its too hot down here for my Lord
the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder
the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder
oh my God

Where I Went Wrong
02:48
|
|||
I been holding on for dear life
desperately
what's right?
I don't know
I am only a man
I got fears like you
got enough for 2, 3,
for ever more...
take me home
back where I belong
take me home
back where
I went wrong so long ago
I don't know
I don't know the truth
you been hanging round for too long
you know the words to the song
but we ain't really on the same page
I got fears like you
got enough for 2, 3,
for ever more...
take me home
back where I belong
take me home
back where
I went wrong so long ago
I don't know
now I lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
lord if I die before I wake
pray the lord my soul to take
now I lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
lord if I die before I wake
pray the lord my soul to take
pray the lord my soul to take
take me home
back where I belong
take me home
back where
I went wrong so long ago
I don't know
