Lyrics

Gather round this table, boys
Bring your shame, I'll lose my voice
Screaming at the gods about the bad we've done
Merle said mama tried but the prison still won
Your transgressions are mine as well
Anger grows in my bones if you could not tell
But I'll find comfort in company
Lord forgive us, my boys and me
We're having an all night revival
Someone call the women and someone steal the bibles
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam and put Johnny on the vinyl
Well the devil can scrap but the Lord has won
And I'll talk to him on the rising sun
I was coming down but now I'm talking to you
'Cause we're having an all night revival
Someone call the women and someone steal the bibles
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam and put Johnny on the vinyl
'Cause we're having an all night revival
Someone call the women and someone steal the bibles
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam and put Johnny on the vinyl
Gather round this table, boys
Bring your shame, I'll lose my voice
Screaming at the gods about the bad we've done
Merle said mama tried but the prison still won
