The Champion lyrics - Carrie Underwood (feat. Ludacris)

[Carrie Underwood:]
I'll be the last one standin'
Two hands in the air, I'm a champion
You'll be looking up at me when it's over
I live for the battle, I'm a soldier, yeah
I'm a fighter like Rocky
Put you flat on your back like Ali
Yeah, I'm the greatest, I'm stronger
Paid my dues, can't lose, I'ma own ya, ay

I've been working my whole life
And now, it's do or die

I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion, you're gon' know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion

When they write my story
They're gonna say that I did it for the glory
But don't think that I did it for the fame, yeah
I did it for the love of the game, yeah
And this is my chance, I'm takin'
All them old records, I'm breakin'
All you people watchin' on the TV
You go ahead and put your bets on me, ay

I've been waitin' my whole life
To see my name in lights

I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion, you're gon' know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion, ooh

[Bridge: Ludacris:]
Born champion, Luda!
The C is for the courage I possess through the trauma (Yeah)
H is for the hurt, but it's all for the honor
A is for my attitude, working through the patience (Hey)
Money comes and goes, so the M is for motivation
Gotta stay consistent, the P is to persevere
The I is for integrity, innovative career (Career)
The O is optimistic, open and never shut
And the N is necessary 'cause I'm never givin' up
See, they ask me how I did it, I just did it from the heart
Crushin' the competition, been doin' it from the start
They say that every champion is all about his principles
Carrie!

[Carrie Underwood:]
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion, you're gon' know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion

[Ludacris & Carrie Underwood:]
I'm the champion, yeah, surpassed all rivals
It's all about who wants it the most
I am the champion, oh
Fight for what we believe in
That's what champions are made of
I am the champion (Yeah, champion)

Game On lyrics - Carrie Underwood

Everybody's ready for the party
Everywhere coast to coast
Come on we're just getting started
Been waiting all weekday let's go

Gangs all here for the throw down
Rowdy crowd rocking the place
The NFL's beast in a show down
Fired up and ready to play

Game on!
Hey it's Sunday night
Game on!
Hey turn up the light
America's game on NBC
The only place to be
Game on! Game on!
It's Sunday night

Oh America's game on NBC
The only place to be
Game on! Game on!
It's Sunday night
It's Sunday night
It's Sunday night

God Bless The USA lyrics - Carrie Underwood

(originally by Lee Greenwood)

If tomorrow all the things were gone you'd worked for all your life
And you had to start again with just your family and your my wife
Would you thank your lucky stars to be livin' here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away

And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died, and gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston, from New York to LA
There's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say

That I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died, and gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up, next to you and defend her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA
God bless the USA

If I Didn't Love You lyrics - Jason Aldean & Carrie Underwood

I wouldn't mind being alone
I wouldn't keep checking my phone
Wouldn't take the long way home
Just to drive myself crazy
I wouldn't be losing sleep
Remembering everything
Everything you said to me
Like I'm doing lately

You
You wouldn't be all
All that I want
Baby, I could let go

If I didn't love you I'd be good by now
I'd be better than barely getting by somehow
Yeah, it would be easy not to miss you
Wonder about who's with you
Turn the "want you" off whenever I want to
If I didn't love you
If I didn't love you

I wouldn't still cry sometimes
Wouldn't have to fake a smile
Play it off and tell a lie
When somebody asked how I've been
I'd try to find someone new (Someone new)
It should be something I can do (I could do)
Baby, if it weren't for you
I wouldn't be in the state that I'm in

Yeah, you
You wouldn't be all
All that I want
Baby, I could let go

If I didn't love you I'd be good by now
I'd be better than barely getting by somehow
Yeah, it would be easy not to miss you
Wonder about who's with you
Turn the "want you" off whenever I want to
If I didn't love you
If I didn't love you
(Oh, if I didn't love you)

It wouldn't be so hard to see you
Know how much I need you
Wouldn't hate that I still feel like I do

If I didn't love you
(Oh, if I didn't love you)
If I didn't love you
(Mmm)

If I didn't love you I'd be good by now
I'd be better than barely getting by somehow
Yeah, it would be easy not to miss you
Wonder about who's with you
Turn the "want you" off whenever I want to
If I didn't love you
(Yeah)
If I didn't love you
(Oh, if I didn't love you)
If I didn't love you
(If I didn't love you)
If I didn't love you

Keep Us Safe lyrics - Carrie Underwood

Deserts grow cold
Rivers run dry
We give up on each other without thinking twice
Hope gets lost
Can't see the dawn
When the storm just won't let up, give us the faith to carry on
When we get scared
Let this be our prayer

God keep us safe, safe tonight
Keep our eyes toward the skies
Send down an army of angels
To make us brave
And keep us strong and unafraid
God keep us safe

We walk a thousand steps in the wrong direction
Broken and bruised, wearing tattered shoes
Asking Him a thousand questions
But we go on trying to get back home
And through the struggles and the troubles I know we don't walk alone
Even when we get lost through the valleys we crossed

God keep us safe, safe tonight
And keep our eyes toward the skies
Send down an army of angels
To make us brave
And keep us strong and unafraid
God keep us safe
God keep us safe

Oh God keep us safe, unafraid
And keep our eyes on the heavens and give us grace
Send us an army of angels
To make us brave
Keep us strong and unafraid
Keep us strong and unafraid
God keep us safe
And keep us safe

Little Toy Guns lyrics - Carrie Underwood

In between the coats in the closet
She held on to that heart shaped locket
Staring at a family flawless
But it ain't a pretty picture tonight
Mom and daddy just wouldn't stop it
Fighting at the drop of a faucet
Cuts through the walls catastrophic
She's caught in the crossfire (Crossfire)
Puts her hands over her ears
Starts talking through her tears
She's sayin', and she's prayin'

I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting, no hurt, no one
Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah, no smoke, no bullets
No kick from the trigger when you pull it
No pain, no damage done
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
And just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)

Wish there was a white flag waving
Or that they were both just faking
And it was just a game they were playing like shoot 'em up cowboys
Leave the plastic pistols in the front yard
Throw away the score card and just turn off all the noise

I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting, no hurt, no one
Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah, no smoke, no bullets
No kick from the trigger when you pull it
No pain, no damage done
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
And just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)

Toy guns
Ohh, I wish they didn't cut like a knife (Like a knife)
I wish they didn't break you inside (Break you inside)
I wish they didn't bang bang make you wanna run, yeah

Like little toy guns
No sting, no hurt, no one
Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
Yeah, no smoke, no bullets
No shot from the trigger when you pull it
No pain, no damage done
(I wish words were like little toy guns)
And just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue
(I wish words were like little toy guns)

Toy guns
Oh, like little toy guns

Only Us lyrics - Carrie Underwood & Dan + Shay

(from "Dear Evan Hansen" soundtrack)

I don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you
I don't need you to search for the proof that I should
You don't have to convince me
You don't have to be scared you're not enough
'Cause what we've got going is good
I don't need more reminders of all that's been broken
I don't need you to fix what I'd rather forget
Clear the slate and start over
Try to quiet the noise that's in your head
We can't compete with all that

So what if it's us, what if it's us
And only us?
And what came before won't count anymore, or matter
Can we try that?
What if it's you, what if it's me, what if that's all that we needed to be?
And the rest of the world flies away
What do you say?

I ain't never thought there'll be someone like you who would want me
So I'll give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go
But if you really see me
If you like me for me and nothing else
Well, that's all that I've wanted for longer than you could possibly know

So it can be us, it can be us
And only us
And what came before won't count anymore, or matter
We can try that
It's not so impossible
Nobody else but the two of us here
'Cause you're saying it's possible
We can just watch the whole world disappear
'Til you're the only one I still know how to see

It's just you and me
It'll be us, it'll be us and only us
And what came before won't count anymore
We can try that, you and me
That's all that we needed to be
And the rest of the world falls away
And the rest of the world falls away
The world falls away, the world falls away
And it's only us

Somethin' Bad lyrics - Miranda Lambert (with Carrie Underwood)

Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen

[Miranda:]
Pulled up to the church but I got so nervous
Had to back it on up, couldn't make it to the service
Grabbed all the cash underneath my mattress
Got a real good feelin' something bad about to happen

[Carrie:]
Ran into a girl in a pretty white dress
Rolled down a window, where you headed to next?
Said I'm heading to the bar with my money out of the mattress
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen…

Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning don't know what happened

Whoa… Something bad
Whoa… Something bad

Now me and that girl that I met on the street
We're rollin' down the road, down to New Orleans
Got a full tank of gas and the money out of the mattress
Got a real good feelin' something bad about to happen

[Miranda:]
'Bout to tear it up down in New Orleans
Just like a real-life Thelma and Louise
If the cops catch up, they're gonna call it kidnapping
Got a real good feelin' something bad about to happen

Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning don't know what happened

Whoa… Something bad
Whoa… Something bad

Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Now the drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning don't know what happened

Whoa… Something bad
Whoa… Something bad

Something In The Water lyrics - Carrie Underwood

He said, "I've been where you've been before
Down every hallway's a slamming door
No way out, no one to come and save me
Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave me

Then somebody said what I'm saying to you
Opened my eyes and told me the truth."
They said, "Just a little faith, it'll all get better."
So I followed that preacher man down to the river and now I'm changed
And now I'm stronger

There must've been something in the water
Oh, there must've been something in the water

Well, I heard what he said and I went on my way
Didn't think about it for a couple of days
Then it hit me like a lightning late one night
I was all out of hope and all out of fight

Couldn't fight back the tears so I fell on my knees
Saying, "God, if you're there come and rescue me."
Felt love pouring down from above
Got washed in the water, washed in the blood and now I'm changed
And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water

And now I'm singing along to "Amazing Grace"
Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face
Got joy in my heart, angels on my side
Thank God almighty, I saw the light
Gonna look ahead, no turning back
Live every day, give it all that I have
Trust in someone bigger than me
Ever since the day that I believed I am changed
And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water (amazing grace)
Oh, there must be something in the water (how sweet the sound)
Oh, there must be something in the water (that saved a wretch)
Oh, there must be something in the water (like me)
Oh, yeah

I am changed (I once was lost)
Stronger (but now I'm found)
(Was blind but now I see)

Stretchy Pants lyrics - Carrie Underwood

Time to celebrate the season, haven't eaten all day
My tummy is growling 'cause I've been saving up space
I've got my place at the table, can't fit no more on my plate
I've got my fork in my hand ready to stuff my face

So bring on the turkey, potatoes, casserole dishes
'Cause I ain't messing around with them buttoned up britches
You got them skinny jeans on, girl, I feel sorry for you
'Cause I just tried everything, and I'm going back for round 2

I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)
Spandex and Lycra, you better work it for me
'Cause I'm about to expand this band of elasticity
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)

Ask me where I got 'em, Amazon at my door
And if I wear this pair out, I'm gonna buy me some more
I got leftovers waiting in the fridge for repeating
Give me a nap and an hour, you know they gonna get eaten

So bring on the turkey, potatoes, casserole dishes
'Cause I ain't messing around with them buttoned up britches
Can't get my skinny jeans on, but don't feel sorry for me
'Cause I just tried everything, and I'm going back for round 3

I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)
Hey, Spandex and Lycra, you better work it for me
'Cause I'm about to expand this band of elasticity
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)

Fruitcake, I'll try it
Ambrosia, I'll try it
Aunt Bertha's 'nana pudding with a cherry on top
Cookies, I'll have some
Oh Gingerbread, leave no crumbs
Guzzle down some egg nog, even though I'm 'bout to pop

I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)

So bring on the turkey, potatoes, casserole dishes
'Cause I ain't messing around with them buttoned up britches
And when you think that I'm done, and I'm laid out on the floor
No no no don't let me fool ya, I got some room for some more

With my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
I got my stretchy pants on (stretchy, stretchy)
Oh oh oh...my stretchy pants on (stretchy pants)
Mmm I got my stretchy pants on ya'll (stretchy, stretchy)

Santa ain't got nothing on me

Tears Of Gold lyrics - David Bisbal & Carrie Underwood

I hear them fallin' a thousand miles away
Nothing and no one is safe, from her eyes
And then when they hit the ground
Then our whole world starts to shake
I'm drownin' inside of the pain
The end of you and I

Pero si tú te vas
Mi vida no es vida si tú no estás
Mi último aliento te llevarás
Si tú no estás será imposible continuar

'Cause when they fall from your eyes they'll be beautiful
It's the sweetest goodbye that I'll ever know
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
Tears of gold
Like I'm watchin' the sun explode
I can feel every drop when I watch you go
'Cause it's rainin' (It's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' (It's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' (Cause it's rainin')
Tears of gold
'Cause when they fall from your eyes they'll be beautiful
It's the sweetest goodbye that I'll ever know

Falling around us, colliding where they land
Paintin' our shadows in sin
We've done all we can

Pero si tú te vas
Mi vida no es vida si tú no estás
Mi último aliento te llevarás
Si tú no estás será imposible continuar

'Cause when they fall from your eyes they'll be beautiful
It's the sweetest goodbye that I'll ever know
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' (It's rainin')
Tears of gold
Like I'm watchin' the sun explode
I can feel every drop when I watch you go
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
Tears of gold
Fall from your eyes they'll be beautiful
It's the sweetest goodbye that I'll ever know
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
'Cause it's rainin' ('Cause it's rainin')
Tears of gold
Like I'm watchin' the sun explode (Ah-ah-ah)
I can feel every drop when I watch you go (Ah-ah-ah)
'Cause it's rainin' (Oh-oh-oh, it's raining)
'Cause it's rainin' (Oh-oh-oh, it's raining)
'Cause it's rainin' (Oh-oh-oh, it's raining)
Tears of gold

The First Noel lyrics - Carrie Underwood

The First Noel the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made Heaven and earth of naught
And with His blood mankind hath bought
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King
Born is the King
Born is the King of Israel!

The Moment Of Truth lyrics - Carrie Underwood

(originally by Survivor)
(from "Cobra Kai" soundtrack)

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

When you're alone, you ask yourself, what are you searching for?
Deep in the night, a dream is born, one that you can't ignore
If you think you can find the passion and you're ready to take a chance
If you really believe you can make it, then the power is in your own hands

It's the moment of truth, you're giving it all
Standing alone, willing to fall
If you can do it, get up and prove it, get up and show them who you are
It's the moment of truth, it's all on the line
This is the place, this is the time
You've waited forever, it's now or it's never, nothing can stop you now
Oh

Once in your life, you make a choice, ready to risk it all
Deep in your soul, you hear a voice answering to the call
Though you know that it won't be easy, it's a promise you'll make for love
For the people that keep believing and the one that you're thinking of

It's the moment of truth, you're giving it all
Standing alone, willing to fall
If you can do it, get up and prove it, get up and show them who you are
It's the moment of truth, it's all on the line
This is the place, this is the time
You've waited forever, it's now or it's never, nothing can stop you now
It's the moment of truth, you're giving it all
Standing alone, willing to fall
If you can do it, get up and prove it, nothing can stop you now
Let's go, All Valley
It's the moment of truth, you're giving it all
Standing alone, willing to fall
If you can do it, get up and prove it, get up and show them who you are
It's the moment of truth, it's all on the line
This is the place, this is the time
You've waited forever, it's now or it's never, nothing can stop you now

Waiting All Day For A Super Bowl Fight lyrics - Carrie Underwood

(Super Bowl XLIX Song)

Waiting all day for a super bowl fight

All right, hold on tight, it's finally here
Super Bowl Sunday's kicking into high gear
The party's arrived; time to get up and cheer

Hey, Jack, it's a fact, a champ's getting crowned
The Patriots and Seahawks in the final showdown
The whole world's a'rocking; time to crank up the sound

The NFL's best are here to play
For every fan, there's just one thing left to say

We've been waiting all day for a Super Bowl fight
Lay it on the line just to get through the night
Running and hitting with all their might
Yeah, everyone's ready for the Big Game tonight

Super Bowl Sunday on NBC
Come on along with the best on TV
Everyone's ready, kick that ball off the tee
Because Super Bowl rocks on NBC

What Child Is This? lyrics - Carrie Underwood

What child is this, who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap, is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come peasant king to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

Renegade Runaway lyrics - Carrie Underwood

Looks like an angel, so picturesque
Looks like she walked right out of the wild, wild west
She's a devil in a satin dress
You don't even know her hair trigger's aimin' right at your chest
By the time you figure out that she gave you the runaround
You won't know where she's at
She's a tumbleweed blowin' in the wind come sundown
Call a girl like that

Renegade runaway
She's a sure shot, knock the ash off a smokin' cigarette
Yeah, that pretty face
Love you, leave you, play you like a heartbreak bandit
She's an outlaw, a quick draw
She'll take it all, so don't you fall
For that renegade
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
You better run away, run away, run away, run away

You'll see her name, alive or dead
Yeah, they'll take her either way cause she's wanted
If I were you, I'd place my bet
That she's ridin' off out into the sunset

With her long hair flyin' 'cross the desert dirt
Let me tell you, boy, you're never gonna catch her

Renegade runaway
She's a sure shot, knock the ash off a smokin' cigarette
Yeah, that pretty face
Love you, leave you, play you like a heartbreak bandit
She's an outlaw, a quick draw
She'll take it all, so don't you fall
For that renegade
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
Oh baby, run away

Young gunslinger makin' you a mess
Tough as nails under that corset
Call her renegade
Runaway, runaway, runaway

Yeah, that pretty face
Love you, leave you, play you like a heartbreak bandit
She's an outlaw, a quick draw
She'll take it all, so don't you fall
For that renegade
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
You better run away, run away, run away, run away
She's a renegade

Dirty Laundry lyrics - Carrie Underwood

That lipstick on your collar, well, it ain't my shade of pink
And I can tell by the smell of that perfume, it's like forty dollars too cheap
And there's a little wine stain on the pocket of your white cotton thread
Well, you drink beer and whiskey, boy, and you know I don't drink red

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
"I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry

If the neighbors get to asking, I won't cover nothin' up
I'll tell 'em every little detail, how you drug me through the mud
I'm gonna string up your old button-down and slide it on the porch
Just in case you get the nerve to come knockin' on my door

Yeah, I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
"I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
"I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry

(Out to dry)
(To the line)
(To the line)

Church Bells lyrics - Carrie Underwood

Jenny grew up wild, like a blackfoot daisy
Out in the shack with a blue tick hound
Broke as hell, but blessed with beauty
The kind that a rich man can't turn down
She caught the eye of an oil man dancing
One summer night in a dime store dress
She had the looks, he had the mansion
And you can figure out the rest

It was all roses, dripping in diamonds
Sipping on champagne
She was all uptown, wearing that white gown
Taking his last name

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing
Fold your hands and close your eyes
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
Yeah, they're ringing

Jenny was hosting Junior League parties
And having dinner at the country club
Everyone thought they were Ken and Barbie
But Ken was always getting way too drunk
Saturday night, after a few too many
He came home ready to fight
And all his money could never save Jenny
From the devil living in his eyes

It was all bruises, covered in makeup
Dark sunglasses
And that next morning, sitting in the back pew
Praying with the baptist

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing
Fold your hands and close your eyes
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
You just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
Yeah, they're ringing

Jenny slipped something in his Tennessee whiskey
No law man was ever gonna find
And how he died is still a mystery
But he hit a woman for the very last time

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
Standing there in a black dress singing, singing
Fold your hands and close your eyes
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
Yeah, they're ringing
