Bible Versus

When you're from down around where I grew up And you go down in that river then you come back up Then one night in field 'round a bonfire lit You get passed a jar, and you take a little sip So here I sit It's like oh, oh, oh That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me High and over empty Bible versus whiskey Some nights it's them words in red That helps me, heals me, clears my head But then other nights when I ain't that tough It's straight 90-proof in a Dixie cup As I fill 'er up It's like oh, oh, oh That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh And since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me High and over empty Bible versus whiskey Bible versus whiskey That devil right here on my shoulder Keeps remindin' me that I can't hold her It's like oh, oh, oh That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me High and over empty And it's like oh, oh, oh That King James says, "Boy, you know better" oh, oh, oh But that bottle says, "Boy, you can't let her go" oh, oh Since she's been gone, I've been leanin' on what gets me High and over empty Bible versus whiskey Bible versus whiskey Bible versus whiskey
