The Fold

Well there's fire and brimstone
But heaven's one step away
Make that first step out of the aisle, son,
Your first towards faith
Yeah we all are sinners
It's true we're all depraved
But let the chosen one's testimony
Sing of Grace
I baptize you, my brother, into the fold
Of the faker, the seeker, the weak, and the bold
I feel the spirit moving
It's moving all through this place
And I pray that it softens your heart now
And lets love have its way
I baptize you, my brother, into the fold
Of the faker, the seeker, the weak, and the bold
Just one more verse now
One last refrain
One last chance for you, good sinner,
To be saved
I baptize you, my brother, into the fold
Of the faker, the seeker, the weak, and the bold

Streets of Gold

You've never worked so hard
To be so broke
Your rewards are in heaven
And one day I know
We'll walk down the streets of gold
Yeah we'll walk down the streets of gold
So give what you can
Take what you need
Just know that the givers are guaranteed
To walk down the streets of gold
Yeah we'll walk down the streets of gold
I'm living proof that the truth is all you need
Keep that in mind as you leave your offering
We'll walk down the streets of gold
Yeah we'll walk down the streets of gold
C'mon, let's go!

Broadway
04:27

Got your bags, got your books, got your guitar set to go
Arrangements made, the plans well laid, the countertop you left your note
saying, "maybe I'll see you someday"
Hopped a flight, hoped you might be the one to steal the show
and for a week you made your scene, sang your songs, and hung your hopes
They're a selfish prayer with an intense of love
You search the seats, but all you see are silhouettes like holy ghosts
The lights they blind. You'd wondered why, but now you know
Thanks to Broadway
Thanks to Broadway
Out of reach in the mezzanine are those you could not touch
They're the love you left, the friends you miss, that never know how much
Singing maybe I'll see you someday
You search the seat, but all you see are silhouettes like holy ghosts
The lights they blind. You'd wondered why, but now you know
Thanks to Braodway

Pretty Rosalee
When it's said and done
May it be known that I've loved you
That you've always been the one
My heart skips a beat
At all the lines I've drawn
In my hopes to do the right thing
I drew all those lines all wrong
So if you're waiting
Don't wait no more
Just purse your lips and give the kiss
You know I've been waiting for
Hey baby can I have one more
Oh, Rosalee you know that I am yours
Hey, Rosalee
Give me that evil eye
Just squint and make me wonder why I'd ever tell a lie
Rosie, honestly
I will always try
To make my mistakes set me straight until the day I die
So if you're waiting
Don't wait no more
Just purse your lips and give the kiss
You know I've been waiting for
Hey baby can I have one more
Oh, Rosalee you know that I am yours

Pick it up
'Cause you've been put down enough
Your just wasting time with the drunks
Who never, ever know when to give it up
Feel the buzz
Leave your system and cuddle up
To the steering wheel of you truck
And curse the name of the one you once loved
"I need you like I need a drink
I'm just too far down that road to think
I've been wasted before, and now I'm thirsty for more
I need you like I need a drink"
Looking back
You can't forget how she looked in black
Like she'd be the death of all you had
If what you had was most likely better off dead
"I need you like I need a drink
I'm just too far down that road to think
I've been wasted before, and now I'm thirsty for more
I need you like I need a drink"
Pick it up
'Cause you've been put down enough
Your just wasting time with the drunks
You never, ever thought you'd become one
"I need you like I need a drink
I'm just too far down that road to think
I've been wasted before, and now I'm thirsty for more
I need you like I need a drink
I think I need a drink"

Meet Me At the Altar
02:07

Well I've got water
More than you can drink
I've got all the bread
That you can eat
And if you're looking for heaven
I've got the keys
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
And you will see
I've got answers
For questions so deep
I've got a warm bed
If you need sleep
I've got a shoulder
So won't you come lean on me
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
And you will see
And when the roll is called up yonder
Follow me, and well walk together
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
Meet me at the altar
And you will see

Everybody has got somebody out tonight
My honey puts the whiskey and bud light
Her company come so easy
As long as I've got he money I'm her type
You know she's mine
It looks like I'll be drinkin' here all night
It looks like I'll be drinkin' here all night
Everybody has got somebody out tonight
My honey pours martinis dirty and dry
She's the picture of beauty
Getting prettier coincidently each round I buy
C'mon I'll buy
It looks like I'll be drinkin' here all night
It looks like I'll be drinkin' here all night
Saying "Good God, Honey don't you go
Let's have another round
Make 'em tall and cold
It ain't last call yet
I ain't out to call it quits
I ain't up for going home
It looks like I'll be drinkin' all night long
It looks like I'll be drinkin' all night long
Everybody has got somebody out tonight

Hell to Pay
03:26
|

|
Get right, or get lost
And your blood will pay the cost
The truth is my cross
Of yours?
My hands are washed
But sinner, now the choice is all yours
The burden falls on those that have heard
The wages of sin won't cover heaven's rent
When there's hell to pay
These words aren't mine
I speak for the divine
If you think I lie
Then you wager with your life
But sinner, there is hope for you still
In the grace of God above and his will
The wages of sin won't cover heaven's rent
When there's hell to pay
The wages of sin won't cover heaven's rent
When there's hell to pay
And there's hell to pay

Caroline

She's the type of girl who only runs with bulls
She ain't too popular with all the other skirts
She says money ain't worth making
If you ain't got someone to spend it on
And Sunday's aren't worth wasting
If you ain't got someone to waste them with
She wants to see me tonight
So who am I to say no to Caroline
She wants to see me tonight
So who am I to say no to Caroline
Woah Caroline
She's what's going on when nothing's happening
As she hums along to whatever song I'm singing
She says money ain't worth making
If you ain't got someone to spend it on
And Marvin Gaye ain't worth playing
If you ain't got someone to get it on
She wants to see me tonight
So who am I to say no to Caroline
She wants to see me tonight
So who am I to say no to Caroline
Saying money ain't worth making
And Sunday's aren't worth wasting
No, money ain't worth making
And Marvin Gaye he ain't worth playing
Unless you've got somebody to get it on
Well do you have somebody to get it on?
If you've got to find somebody to get it on
Well honey, I'm your someone

There's a healing in this place
And if you're thirsty come have a taste
There's love for the lonely in these grapes
So sing Hallelujah I've been saved
I said There's a healing in this place
And if you're thirsty come have a taste
There's love for the lonely in these grapes
So sing Hallelujah I've been saved
Well everybody sing
Hey, Hey Hallelujah
Hey, Hey Hallelujah
Hallelujah I've been saved
No, It don't matter who saves your soul
You can pray to the Jesus of rock n roll
We all need a savior and mines in this song
When the congregations sings along
Let Go!
Well everybody sing
Hey, Hey Hallelujah
Hey, Hey Hallelujah
Hallelujah I've been saved
