sober truth - aaron watson lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i ain’t had a drink in a month of sundays
though your leaving left me sideways
been on that back row church pew
singing old gospel songs
preacher’s been preaching ’bout heaven and h*ll
jesus and jack don’t mix too well
i got right, got saved, i prayed
but god knows you’re still gone

[verse 2]
last night, i met this old vietnam vet
he hit me up for a cigarette
then he bummed a light and he offered me
a little swig of his jim beam
but i’m as dry as i can be
i’m as dry as throckmorton county
’cause i’ve been buzzing on these
neon dreams and marlboro nicotine

[chorus]
but i’m riding high and i’m laying low
and i’m hanging on for my dеar soul
all those prayers you prayed paid off
and i just wantеd you to know
that i saw the light at that revival
i gave up the bottle for the bible
but this heartache is ninety*proof
and that’s the sober truth
[post*chorus]
swear that’s the sober truth

[verse 3]
i can’t go back and undrink the rum
your reason for leaving’s whiskey strong
i know it took losing you for me to find
the good book on the nightstand
“amazing grace,” how sweet the sound
i was lost, but now i’m down
since you’re nowhere to be found
now that i’m a better man

[chorus]
but i’m riding high and i’m laying low
and i’m hanging on for my dear soul
all those prayers you prayed paid off
and i just wanted you to know
that i saw the light at that revival
i gave up the bottle for the bible
but this heartache is ninety*proof
and that’s the sober truth

[post*chorus]
yeah, that’s the sober truth
[bridge]
so go fill your cup and raise ’em up
y’all make a toast and throw ’em back
and everyone drink one for me in memory
of the fool i used to be
but now he ain’t me

[chorus]
’cause i’m riding high and i’m laying low
and i’m hanging on for my dear soul
all those prayers you prayed paid off
and i just wanted you to know
that i saw the light at that revival
i gave up the bottle for the bible
but this heartache is ninety*proof
’cause god knows i still love you
and that’s the sober truth

[outro]
(i ain’t had a drink in a month of sundays)
(though your leaving left me sideways)
yeah, that’s the sober truth
(been on that back row church pew)
(singing old gospel songs)
this heartache’s ninety*proof
(preacher’s been preaching ’bout heaven and h*ll)
(jesus and jack don’t mix too well)
swear that’s the sober truth
(i got right, got saved, i prayed)
but god knows you’re still gone
