j.r. carroll - preacher man lyrics

Loading...

well i ain’t the kind of man
who’d turn and run from a fight
got no money in my pockets
all i carry these days is my old man’s knife

i ain’t sweating for my wages
i’m just fighting demons, raging in the dark
between memories and broken dreams
i ain’t sure there’s a real good place to start

well i’m pretty good at playing roles
i’ve been acting like i’m something that i’m not for a while
i’ve been running from my nature
trying to change it
but turns out there’s plenty parts of me
that ain’t worth saving

i’m a no good son of a
preacher man
with a smoking habit
in a one piece band
not a clue in the world what i’m doing
or where i’m bound
and i’m running awful low on
give a d_mn’s
and i’m trying to learn to accept who i am
i ain’t asking for approval anymore
papa, i’m grown now
i’m gonna make you proud
i’m gonna make you proud

well i had a dream the other night that
i was standing in a stage
in the shadows of the crowd
i swear to god i saw your face
you came to me with open arms
and told me you were proud of who i was
but i woke up alone again
and i can’t face the man that i’ve become

still i’m pretty good at playing roles
i’ve been acting like i’m something
that i’m not for a while
i’ve been running from my nature
trying to change it
but turns out there’s plenty parts of me
ain’t worth saving

i’m a no good son of a
preacher man
with a smoking habit
in a one piece band
not a clue in the world what i’m doing
or where i’m bound
and i’m running awful low on
give a d_mn’s
and i’m trying to learn to accept who i am
i ain’t asking for approval anymore
papa, i’m grown now
i’m gonna make you proud
i’m gonna make you proud
