Mama put brother on the prayer list When he got caught smokin' that pot
Daddy found out first thing he could *** And he whupped him with a Zepco rock
When we messed up, she'd fill us up With the scripture and a Baptist hymn
And she'd pray we'd be a little more like her And a whole lot less like him
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
She was red letter heaven He was old number seven
Between the two of them Wasn't nothin' they couldn't handle
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
He hated how she never had no fun She hated how he had too much
Got a little bit from both of them A little Bible and a little buzz
I wound up turnin' out Smack dab in between
His taste for Lynchburg And her grace from John 3-16
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
She was red letter heaven He was old number seven
Between the two of them Wasn't nothin' they couldn't handle
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
I'm a little hell, yeah I'm a little hallelujah
If there's a stool or a pew I might sit down next to ya
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
She was red letter heaven He was old number seven
Between the two of them Wasn't nothin' they couldn't handle
Mama loved Jesus Daddy loved Jack Daniels
I'm a little hell, yeah I'm a little hallelujah
