Gather 'round this table boys
Bring your shame
I'll lose my voice
Screaming at the gods
about the bad we've done
Merle said Mama tried
but the prison still won
Your transgressions
are mine as well
Anger grows in my bones
if you could not tell
But I'll find comfort in company
Lord forgive us
my boys and me
We're havin'
an all-night revival
Someone call the women
and someone steal the Bible
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam
put Johnny on the vinyl
Well the devil can scrap
but the Lord has won
And I'll talk to him
on the rising sun
His son rose and mine did too
I was coming down
but now I'm talking to you
'Cause we're havin'
an all-night revival
Someone call the women
and someone steal the Bible
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam
put Johnny on the vinyl
'Cause we're havin'
an all-night revival
Someone call the women
and someone steal the Bible
For the sake of my survival
Baptize me in a bottle of Beam
put Johnny on the vinyl
Gather 'round this table boys
Bring your shame
I'll lose my voice
Screaming at the gods
about the bad we've done
Merle said Mama tried
but the prison still won
