Wash my sins in the river
let the angels take my soul
Pour one out for
all the real ones
way out where the
pine trees grow
Take me back to Alabama
read them verses
grandma all knew
When it's my time
to leave this earth
you can leave
the dirt on my boots
Leave my Bible to my mama
leave my whiskey
to my friends
Leave my middle finger up
to the ones that said
that I ain't shit
Leave my twelve gauge
to my brother
leave that Chevy to my dad
Leave my money to my woman
'least whatever I got left
When it's time for
what comes next
Wash my sins in the river
let the angels take my soul
Pour one out for all
the real ones way out
where the pine trees grow
Take me back to Alabama
read them verses
grandma knew
When it's my time
to leave this earth
you can leave
the dirt on my boots
Ain't no need
to clean me up
ain't no need
for you to cry
Six feet down ain't
where I'm stuck
I send one up into the sky
Blow that smoke
until the sunrise
burn some fog right
off the grass
Ain't no need to
shine me up the day
he finally calls me back
Wash my sins in the river
let the angels
take my soul
Pour one out for
all the real ones way out
where the pine trees grow
Take me back to Alabama
read them verses
grandma knew
When it's my time
to leave this earth
you can leave
the dirt on my boots
Leave my Bible to my mama
leave my whiskey
to my friends
Leave my middle finger up
to the ones that said
that I ain't shit
Take me back to Alabama
read them verses
grandma knew
When it's my time to
leave this earth
you can leave
the dirt on my boots
