She said nothin' ever good comes after midnight

Took me twenty three years just to prove momma right

On a curb with my hands behind my back somewhere

Near Mac Davis lane

Two sets of bright lights pointed at me

And an officer askin' my name

Well I can find myself a woman

But ain't no ring heavy enough to weigh the bottle down

I can go and find Jesus

Even the cross casts shadows on the ground

I can live my life as a decent man

But purpose lived in the dark it ain't worth a d*mn

Well there ain't nothing that's more lonesome than a Sunday

Morning and a mirror howlin' out your name

Rock bottom's just a marker that you use to tell

The nighttime from the day

And make a promise not to be your father son

But his mistakes you try to erase

Well I can find myself a woman

But ain't no ring heavy enough to weigh the bottle down

I can go and find Jesus

But even the cross casts shadows on the ground

I can live my life as a decent man

But purpose lived in the dark it ain't worth a d*mn

Well I can find myself a woman

But ain't no ring heavy enough to weigh the bottle down

I can go and find Jesus

But even the cross casts shadows on the ground

I can live my life as a decent man

But purpose lived in the dark it ain't worth a d*mn

I can live my life as a decent man

But purpose lived in the dark it ain't worth a d*mn
