My father, he done told me |
|
To never, ever hurt no one |
|
But now I'm sick and mad, and |
|
I been caught red-handed |
|
And I'm still my father's son |
|
I lay awake 'til daylight |
|
A pillow and a gun |
|
And if my secret dreams could be seen on screen |
|
Then they'll be coming for this one |
|
So down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordPlease |
|
Lord, now forgive me |
|
Even though |
|
I don't deserve |
|
I never was too good in life |
|
The devil's all |
|
I serveMy woman, she done left me |
|
I told her twice to go |
|
The first time she ignored me |
|
But then I threw her on the floor |
|
So down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordWell, |
|
I sleep with one eye open |
|
I weep with both eyes closed |
|
Darkness coming down on me |
|
And tomorrow never knows |
|
Ever I suffer |
|
Ever I suffer my fill |
|
And if you don't pray for me now |
|
Nobody ever will |
|
So down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordSo down low, better slow down, |
|
LordNow I'm in the graveyard |
|
There's darkness all around |
|
Voices floating through the air |
|
Speaking with no sound |
|
You were your father's son |
|
But you left him far beyond |
|
Beyond the reach of mercy |
|
In the darkness of the son |
|
I'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
LordI'm so down low, better slow down, |
|
Lord |
