Lord Lord Lord Songtext
Well I spent so much time looking out through iron bars
And when I'd look down I'd see stripes running up my arms
And I'd spit and I'd curse when I'd see that goddamn chain
But now I promise that I'll never take your name in vain again

Lord, Lord, Lord can I please have your forgiveness
And I'll try, try, try to make a friend in Jesus
And I will not lie, cheat, deceive or steal
And I promise I won't do no wrong no more
Well now I'm out of that grey jail house without a penny now to spend
Oh Lord I feel so out of touch, I sure could use a friend
My Charlotte she don't want me and my Pa's deep in the ground
It looks like I've got nobody who cares that I'm around

Lord, Lord, Lord can I please have your forgiveness
And I'll try, try, try to make a friend in Jesus
And I will not lie, cheat, deceive or steal
And I promise I won't do no wrong no more

Well I've seen folks who've found you Lord
And they say you ain't half bad
And they say you'll accept anyone
No matter what kind of past they've had
They shout out your name
And they clap both their hands
And they sing of your love, so come on man
Give me a second chance

Lord, Lord, Lord can I please have your forgiveness
And I'll try, try, try to make a friend in Jesus
And I will not lie, cheat, deceive or steal
And I promise I won't do no wrong no more
