Muddy The Water Testo

We'd burn that candle at both ends
We'd spin them tires and let them smoke
We'd back pew hallelujah
Did a few things only heaven knows, and
We lived like we would never die
We grabbed the dice and let 'em roll
One foot in the book of John
One on the wrong road

We towed the line 'tween saint and sinner And burned some good nights down to embers
Left more than a few things out in that river
Drinking spirit from a bottle, sending prayers to the Father
Damn sure knew how to muddy the water

We ran our grace into the ground
We kept our mamas praying hard
We pushed forgiveness to the edge
And sometimes too far

We towed the line 'tween saint and sinner
And burned some good nights down to embers
Left more than a few things out in that river
Drinking spirit from a bottle, sending prayers to the Father
Damn sure knew how to muddy the water

I left my boots there, on the bank of it
In the shade of some shoreline trees
Preacher man said some words, dipped me down in it
And I came back clean
Towed the line 'tween saint and sinner
And burned some good nights down to embers
Left more than a few things out in that river
Drinking spirit from a bottle, sending prayers to the Father
Damn sure knew how to muddy the water
