god is in my left ear, devil on my right
they both want my attention, they call me every night,
i'm just looking for a safe place,
somewhere to retreeeeeeeeeeeeeat,
i'll tell you where i stand,
when i'm back up on my feet.
some folks like it hotter,others want it cold,
i'm a man for every season, i don't fit in anymore,
sunny like a church day,
the thunder lurks beneeeeeeeeath,
i'll tell you where i stand, when im back up on my feet.
i got a shotgun shoot'n fire, a pistol full of love
ive been with girls for hire,and the angels up above
i'm a saint and a sinner,
a package incompleeeeeeeeeeeeeeat,
ill tell you where i stand,
when i'm back up on my feet.
once i had a true love, a litte gal of mine,
her heart was made of pure gold,
her bosom full of wine,
she was innocent and happy,much to good for meeeeeeeeeee,
you all must understand,she rocked me off my feet.
i was floating like a fig leaf, deffensless to her touch
she reached inside my soul, got me thinking way to much,
i was acting like a schoolboy, restless in my seeeeeeeeeeeeeat
i have to find a way, to get back on my feet
yea the sun out west was setting, my working day was through,
i had myself a thinkin , and a real good talkin too
drink it over, drink it over, drink it over yea, yea
oh later on that evening, i shot my girl point blank!
then i layed down next to her, i was trying to explain,
a man without his armor, is useless and is weeeeeeeeeeeeeak,
i know it isn't right, but thats the way it is,
she smiled at me and whispered, you always speak too late
all you had to do was tell it to me straight,
and then she said i love you,
i hope that we can meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet,
someday up in heaven, when your backup on your feet
now i live all by my loansome, i have no family,
just a cabin full of demons, and haunting memories
everyday i'm prayin , do here on my kneeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
im trying to understand, why im still not on my feet
