letra de bible and a gun - the wages of sin

Loading...

granddaddy was a preacher
straight and hard as iron
heart pumped holy spirit
the way his stills pumped shine

the good book and a sawed-off
let the revenuers come
the only law he’d answer to
a bible and a gun

sunday mornin’ service
granddaddy’s eyes would roam
anyone who’d crossed us
he’d cast judgement on their soul

the holy ghost and fire
the blessed gift of tongues
there’s no evil can’t be faced off with
a bible and a gun

my daddy went to viеtnam
he lied about his age
mеt some boys in laos
who worked for the cia

he ran their black tar heroin
to the las vegas strip
funneled money to the outfit
said let’s give the beard a clip
he died in a wh0rehouse
on the outskirts of da nang
a vein shot full of strychnine
and his d-ck still in his hand

sent his estate home in a box
with the next vegas run
a deck of nudie playin’ cards
a bible and a gun

my brother joined the army
to travel overseas
i wish that i could join him
but i got a bum left knee

he fought reds in nicaragua
and in afghanistan
now he’s runnin’ opium
for the taliban

and i stayed in these old pine woods
to mind the family store
i mostly deal in crystal meth
’cause shine don’t sell no more

do the sunday service
from my daddy’s old black book
loaded tec-9 in the pulpit
just in case the cops show up
now you can try to judge me
you can tell me that i’m wrong
my family raised me right
that holy spirit keeps me strong

this is the land of freedom
and i’m my father’s son
and i’ll take what i got comin’
with a bible and a gun

- the wages of sin
