Lyrics

The Lord loves the drinkin' man Sends honkey tonk angels to the promise land I hear that he can turn water to wine Any man that can do that is a good friend of mine I've been baptized in beer, I'm here to testify I was speaking in tongues when I came home last night Some folks say I'm livin' in sin, but I know The Lord loves the drinkin' man The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven I've been thinking 'bout it and I've come to this conclusion now The Lord loves the drinkin' man The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven My daddy says son you're living your life all wrong Lighting's gonna strike you down before too long That man upstairs he don't like what you do When you reach those pearly gates you ain't getting through Well I've been thinkin', I've got a brand new plan I'm gonna start a little church down at the Stumble Inn Yea that's right I'm gonna start my own religion We'll be drinkin' and dancin' at the church of Hank Williams yea The Lord loves the drinkin' man The Preacher man he told me boy you ain't no good The devils gonna getcha, better start actin' like you should All the cold beers and bright lights, stayin' out all night The good book it tells me boy your soul's gonna burn My mamma said son you're headin' down the wrong road They don't let honkey tonkers up in heaven I've been told Don't you worry mamma I'll see you up in heaven Oh, yea I know The Lord loves, I hope he does, the Lord loves the drinkin' man
