I WAS FIFTEEN
WHEN MY DADDY'S
OLD MAN
CAUGHT ME HALFWAY
THROUGH MY FIRST BEER
HE LAUGHED SO HARD
WHEN MY FACE
TURNED GREEN
HE SAID YOU COME FROM
A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
NOW ME AND
MY BROTHER
GO TO SEE HIM
SOMETIMES
BUT HE DON'T
HAVE MUCH TO SAY
ANYMORE
SO WE SIT ON
HIS HEADSTONE
WITH A FIFTH OF JACK D
HERE'S TO A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
LA DEE DA DEE DA
LA DEE DA DA DEE DEE
I COME FROM
A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
MY MAMA
HAD A SOFT SPOT
FOR A HELL-RAISIN' BOY
SO SHE HAD TWO MORE
JUST LIKE HIM
IT TAKES AN ANGEL
TO RAISE A FAMILY
THAT COMES FROM
A LONG LINE OF SINNERS
LIKE ME WELL NOW MAYBE
WHO KNOWS
SOMEDAY
I'LL SETTLE DOWN
GIVE MY DAD
A GRANDSON OF HIS OWN
AND WHEN THE DOCTOR
SMACKS HIM
HE'LL PROBABLY
TAKE A SWING
'CAUSE HE'LL COME FROM
A LONG LINE OF SINNERS
LIKE ME LA DEE DA DEE DA
LA DEE DA DA DEE DEE
I COME FROM
A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
16 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
ON THE DAY I DIE
I KNOW WHERE
I'M GONNA GO
ME AND JESUS GOT
THAT PART WORKED OUT
I'LL WAIT AT THE GATES
'TIL HIS FACE I SEE
AND STAND IN
A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
I'LL STAND IN A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
4 BAR

A LONG LINE
OF SINNERS LIKE ME
