Verse
The Old Crow Chapel
Jeremy Hurtt•
there's things that a man must endure
Verse 1
Jesus forgives but I ain't forgotThere's wounds for which time has no salveI fix my sights when I shoot my shotGive em hell when that's all that you have
Chorus
When the yards have all gone dormantAnd cars are no more importantCause ain't nobody refining no more fuelI'll be waiting with the patienceOf a stoneAt the Old Crow ChapelWith a pocket full of penanceJust for you
Verse 2
Satan deceives but I'll tell ya straightThere's things that a man must endureI'll let it go when at Heaven's gateAnd you've paid the interest that's matured
Chorus
When the wires have all gone silentAnd hearts are no more compliantCause ain't nobody abiding no more foolsI'll be waiting with the patienceOf a stoneAt the Old Crow ChapelWith a pocket full of penanceJust for you
Verse 3
History recalls what poets recordThere's lines with more power than mostI'm just a dog with no need for a wordLet my bite be the tale of my toast
Chorus
When the fires have all gone ashenAnd stars are no more in fashionCause ain't nobody defining by what's coolI'll be waiting with the patienceOf a stoneAt the Old Crow ChapelWith a pocket full of penanceJust for you
