The Down Low

It was a long haul and I was rippin’ down the road
Headed up to Pasadena with a dirty kinda load
Them bears was on my tail, I heard the sirens wail
Oh lord if they catch me now
they’re gonna put me in the county jail
Oh lord have mercy on me, Oh lord have mercy on me
Oh lord have mercy on me, Oh lord have mercy on me
It was a long shot, and I was comin’ round the bend
Headin' for the freeway thinkin' this might be the end
I’d rather die! And go to hell! Than spend my life inside a cell
Oh lord they won’t catch me now,
I’m never goin to the county jail
Oh lord have mercy on me, Oh lord have mercy on me
Oh lord have mercy on me, Oh lord have mercy on me

Devil's Den

Drivin round just to kill some time
Seven sins running through my mind
Invitation for a banquet feast
Take it up, time to meet the beast
Unlocked door and I’m on my knees
Told to beg for it, oh so sweet
Stolen things from the family chest
Mouth is full from the feast no less
Oh they say he works harder, oh they say he works harder
Oh they say he works harder, But he’ll never be my father
Always thought that he would be red
Not the case as I crawl to bed
Blending in with the beautiful things
Loves to dress me up while he sings
Oh they say he works harder, oh they say he works harder
Oh they say he works harder, But he’ll never be my father
Reaching out with a slender hand
Slowly turns me around to stand
I’ll be dead now, in less than ten
Strange when you’re in the Devil's Den
Oh they say he works harder, oh they say he works harder
Oh they say he works harder, But he’ll never be my father

Slide Right In

He’s been treatin’ you bad,
Not takin’ care of your needs
I’m just hangin’ around here honey, with my bag of seeds
He’s been makin’ you sad,
Always got you down on your knees
I’ll come rollin’ through the back door baby, like a tumbleweed
I’m gonna slide right in, I’m gonna slide right in
I’m gonna make him pay, for neglecting all your wants and needs
I’m gonna Make him pay, for neglecting all your wants and needs
He’s makin' you call him dad,
Says you can’t get by on deeds
He’s just tellin’ you passed down lies honey, from his book you read
You’re always makin’ him mad
He tricked you with an old apple tree
Now you’re messin' with that free will baby, so choose to come with me
I’m gonna slide right in, I’m gonna slide right in
I’m gonna make him pay, for neglecting all your wants and needs
I’m gonna Make him pay, for neglecting all your wants and needs
Slide right in... slide right in...

Evil in You and In Me
03:09

Pockets are empty, I’m tangled in sin
Seduced by those white lines again
I should refuse them but I hear talk is cheap
The evil in you and in me
Heart it is racin', the end it feels near
I pray out of panic and fear
and if that prayer is answered, I’ll be back here next week
The evil in you and in me
There’s a holy war, or so I’m told, go on preach
when there’s holy war, peace will remain out of reach
I’m always leanin’ on a god who can’t lose
I still get shit stuck on my shoes
I’m countin’ my blessings overtaken you see
The evil in you and in me
There’s holy war or so I’m told, go on preach
when there’s holy war, peace will remain out of reach
Father forgive me but you’ve let me down
I’ll see you when I’m underground
Your book is conflicting, confusing, and weak
The evil in you and in me
The evil in you and in me
The evil in you and in me

Good to Me
03:45

I think about the times I made it rain
Stood by my side through all that pain
Like a crazy horse I gave you hell
Why you love me I can’t tell
I can’t see why you’re good to me
You say I’m sweet I don’t agree
Up and down my heart is wild
Sometimes I cry just like a child
living with me has gotta be rough
I close off and try to act tough
I can’t see why you’re good to me
You say I’m sweet I don’t agree
I can’t see why you’re good to me
I act the fool and stumble home
I just can’t leave that life alone
Your heart is gold, my heart is black
I leave for days and you still take me back
I can’t see why you’re good to me
You say I’m sweet I don’t agree
I can’t see why you’re good to me
You say I’m sweet I don’t agree
