It's hard to be a Christian, Lord knows I've tried
I do alright for a day,
But then the next, you swore I'd never saw the light
But i can drink, swear and lie till the early morning dawns
It's a shame the only things you can do right, are wrong
I can't save my money, I spend it like there's no tomorrow
When the bills come due, I never have enough
I have to beg, steal or borrow
But if a man could live on good times, I'd be the richest man of all
It's a shame, the only things you can do right, are wrong
But I can sing all night to the honky tonk crowd
And I can hang with the best when it comes to pouring whiskey down
I can find me a bar room angel that will hold me all night long
It's a shame, the only things you can do right, are wrong
I can sing all night to a honkytonk crowd
And I can hang with the best when it comes to pouring whiskey down
I can find me a bar room angel, that will hold me all night long
It's a shame, the only things you can do right, are wrong
Ohh, they'll be hell to pay when the only things
You can do right are wrong
