lyrics

I’ll always love Alabama
That’s where I’ve spent most of my years
But I want to move off to Austin, Texas
Just based on what I hear
Well I’m always looking for the perfect time
And I try with all my might
There was a time down in sweet Orleans
I just know I got it right

Go down in the blood of the lamb
Wont you please, please take me as I am
I can’t trust myself when the lights come on
I start throwing fits as far as they can be thrown

I don’t really know what Dixie means
But what a paradise he did make
How come you want to go and whip me out of the dirt
Setting rules that you know I’ll break?
Well I hate it with my heart
You know I really do
I only want to see the ending if it starts with you
Take me to the ark and we’ll go two by two
Cause there aint a single think I wouldn’t do to you darlin

Go down in the blood of the lamb
Wont you please, please take me as I am
I can’t trust myself when the lights come on
I start throwing fits as far as they can be thrown

Well I remember the day that I figured it out
Liked to shot up through the roof
Now I just need a shoulder to lean on
Til the day that I can finally handle the truth
I couldn’t line them up, there are so many of them
And in a way I guess that makes me sad
But I hear it like a record spinning everyday
You better do your homework if you think y’all bad

I don’t think I’m right it’s just my interpretation
Won’t be surprised if it spreads across the nation
