The Hillbilly Thomists - Bourbon, Bluegrass, and the Bible lyrics

{Verse 1} Lived through time, passed through fire Broke my heart, wounded desire Changed my life, fixed the past Stared at death, and it stared back Standing fast in the light of the Word A shotgun blast was the last thing I heard I rattled in the wind like a windowpane The soul's alright but my body complains {Chorus} Death's in the world and it's gone viral Everybody's talking 'bout a new revival When it's a question of love and survival Bourbon, bluegrass and the Bible {Verse 2} Sleep like a giant, watch the rain Bust to your force and feel no pain There's music at night, music in the day You live your life without getting paid You're a child of the storm, a child of the Lord You live your life without getting bored You lose your mind but you find it again Talking 'bout grace and talking 'bout sin {Chorus} {Verse 3} Preacher don't lie, there's whiskey in the still A fox in the rain done had his fill Chicken in the bread pan picking out dough Play that song wherever I go People on the left, people on the right They don't need beer to get into a fight Everybody's out in their disguise The light in the morning just hurts my eyes {Chorus} {Verse 4} Fire in the hole, steer in the woods When the Lord hit me, hit me pretty good Sit up straight and clean your face We done gotta get out of this place Uncle Penn is loading his gun You start to walk, I'll start to run Lifting my thumb by the side of the road I take my banjo wherever I go {Chorus} {Verse 5} Baptized at a hundred and five Not a life well lived, but a life well died At the funeral we all sang, Mama tried Half of us laughed and half of us cried Redneck town, two dogs in a sack You burn it all down and it all grows back Stars in the night, their light don't lie I'll see you up there when they fall from the sky {Chorus}
