Paint your truck tread with some red dust
While you kick up the long way home
Share some bootleg with your best buds
Wear a bit of that bonfire smoke
If a back porch swang and twang in your words
And said that hook was a good book verse I'd be doing alright
I know where I's going when I get to the other side
Cause
back roads and cold beer Are my down home prayer
Can't get no closer
To the man upstairs
Then way out there where the river runs
Lord knows I'd be one hell of a disciple
If being country was in the Bible Hallelujah,
Amen
Heaven bless this life I live Hallelujah,
Amen, Amen
If John Derek Green was 316 And old bar stools were back pew seats
These Friday nights would all just seem like Sunday morning
If them words in red were a little more
red This sinner'd be a saint instead
Cause back roads and cold beer Are my down home prayer
Can't get no closer To the man upstairs
Then way out there where the river runs Lord knows I'd be one hell of
a disciple
If being country was in the Bible Hallelujah,
Amen
Cause
back roads and cold beer Are my down home prayer
Can't get no closer To God's grace I swear
Then way out there where the river runs
Lord knows I'd be one hell of a disciple
If being country was in the Bible Hallelujah,
Amen
