Blacktop Gospel (Alt 1)

Verse 1 I was raised on hard rain And a mean old name County road scars on my boots Church door broke Backseat smoke Mama said, "Boy, tell the truth"

Verse 2 I keep a .45 prayer In the glovebox there Next to a paycheck gone thin I don't bend low I don't bow slow I just grin and let it in

Pre-Chorus If the devil wants a dance He can show his hand I got grit in my teeth tonight I been dragged through hell Still standing well Yeah, I'm mean in the pale moonlight

Chorus I live like a bad damn son I live like a bad damn son If you want me gone, come run I'm hell on wheels and I don't come undone Bad damn son Bad damn son

Verse 3 There’s a stain on the floorboards From a wrong turn war And a heartbreak I won't name I kissed that wreck Then I left With a black sky in my veins

Pre-Chorus If the devil wants a dance He can show his hand I got grit in my teeth tonight I been dragged through hell Still standing well Yeah, I'm mean in the pale moonlight

Chorus I live like a bad damn son I live like a bad damn son If you want me gone, come run I'm hell on wheels and I don't come undone Bad damn son Bad damn son

Bridge Let the preacher talk Let the judges bark I was born with a fight in my chest You can keep your gold I’ll keep my soul And the scars on my leather vest I live like a bad damn son I live like a bad damn son If you want me gone, come run I'm hell on wheels and I don't come undone Bad damn son Bad damn son
