lyrics

Hittin’ The Bible Again
music and lyrics Ken Veltz

I’m hittin’ the Bible again
The bottle’s been an unfaithful friend
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Keep me keepin’ on
I’m hittin’ the Bible again

Bad news, hit the booze, barstool confession blues
Same sad song all year
Pay to pay, day to day, to the one that got away
Pour another round of beer

I hit the bar floor on my knees, the damn bouncer took my keys
I was out and down but Heaven’s hound came after me (Chorus)

Sunday meetin’ as a boy, pastor preachin’, Mama’s joy
Helpin’ people through hard times
Potato salad afternoons, friends and family singing tunes
Jesus was a friend of mine

But then a dark cloud filled the sky, saw the world through bloodshot eyes
That empty glass had kicked my ass and drained me dry

(Bridge)
There’s nothin’ wrong with a drink or two
Unless those drinks start drinkin’ you
Then it’s time to end each day with an Amen
And start hittin’ the Bible again

I’m hittin’ the Bible again
The bottle’s been an unfaithful friend
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Keep me keepin’ on
I’m back on the Bible
Hooked on revival
I’m hittin’ the Bible again… AMEN
