I write songs that feel good
I write songs that hurt
I've been known to turn a honky tonk
Into a black baptist church amen

Verse
I dont sin by his first name
I know salvation well
You can say I saw the light in
The flickerin flames of hell
I got a bottle of redemption on my shelf
Child let me help you save yourself
Good God almighty with glory bound
And there's plenty of redemption to go around
Instrumental Break
Verse
I dont call myself a prophet
Cant say that I'm a saint
But I've been down to the crossroad
Seen things that most folks ain't
Verse
I know the devil can't do much evil
If he's too damn drunk to stand
My angels got they hands full
I help the only way I can
I got a bottle of redemption on my shelf
Child let me help you save yourself
Good God almighty with glory bound
And there's plenty of redemption to go around

Bridge
Whether it's a one room tavern bar stool
Or a little white church house too
I find the faith I fight the way
My Jesus wants me to
If you aint got a good spot
On the wicked things I've done
If he'll save this backslidin bastard
Then brother believe he'll save anyone
I got a bottle of redemption on my shelf
Child let me help you save yourself
Good God almighty with glory bound
And there's plenty of redemption to go around
I got a bottle of redemption on my shelf
And I can't drink it all by myself
Bow your head fold your hands
Gonna drink all the way to glor-y l-and

Outro
I got a bottle of redemption
