18 wheeler, back road dealer, hundred different ways to ride
If you'd have seen what I seen
Done what I done you'd be lookin for a place to hide
Even if I had a shiny silver dollar
Every time I passed the promised land
I'd still be 2 bucks shy, at the back of line
Cause they ain't ever gonna let me in
When my pride got the best of me
When my pride got the best of me
I was a stuck up no good son of a gun til the good lord set me free
Found a way to put it all together
Tried to make the whole world see
Foolish pride begone Glory Saint Mary
Hallelujah let me be
Cold hard money cash and clothes, livin it up everyday
Weekend trips down to Vegas right up until the repo came
There I was on the ground with the shit comin down
Til I saw shimmering light
Lady Luck in a 2 piece bikini
Come to fly me home through the night
When the dealer got ahold of me
When the dealer got ahold of me
I was a rollin, reelin, two time cheating
Til the good lord set me free
Found a way to put it altogether
Tried to make the whole world see
Dirty dealin begone Glory St. Mary
Hallelujah let me be
Now Honky Tonk Hell is a hell of a place
They got a big old dance room hall
Seats reserved for all the folks down in Nashville
Writing phony ass country songs
And if people ever get to askin
Mr. Gabe Lee how you end up here?
I look'em dead in the eye
And my only reply is to hit'em with a mile long stare
When the devil got ahold of me
When the devil got ahold of me
I felt a black hole way down deep in my heart
Until the good lord set me free
Found a way to put it altogether
Tried to make the whole world see
Punk ass devil begone Glory Saint Mary
Hallelujah let me be
Punk ass devil begone Glory Saint Mary
Hallelujah let me be
