lirik lagu tom t hall - bourbon man
i have a very good friend in nashville tennessee
who is a semiprofessional wino
and during one of our recent and frequent conversations
we got to talk about his religious philosophy
and as far as i could determine this is the way he feels about it
lord can a drunk go to heaven
well, frankly i don’t see why not
if the lord loves the weak and the weary
well, how come he can’t love a sot
now i don’t drink to hurt anybody
why i love everybody i meet
i can quit any time but i don’t want to
and in fact i quit three times last week
now lemme tell you ’bout some of them preachers
lord you know some of ’em ain’t worth a dime
why they’re flirtin’ with all of them wider, mm yeah
and one is a wider of mine
oh, i hear people prayin’ so fancy
why they’d be better off a sendin’ you mail
lord if they could’ve heard me last sunday
well, i’ve prayed ’em right out of that jail
now lord if a drunk gets to heaven
to walk on that great golden strand
would you give me a spot and the shade of a tree
and remember i’m a bourbon man
