When I am buried don't visit my grave God cannot save me from the sins I've embraced Pay your respects at the old liquor store Where I won the battle, but I lost the war You mine for silver, and I pan for gold You keep yours hidden, while all my are sold You tell the truth, and I lie and I barter And I drink and I cry, and I pa** out at night I've always cheated, though I've never stolen I've wanted things that you ain't never thought of Pay your respects to that gamblin' score Where I won the battle, and I lost the war They always told me when d**h came my sins would be Cast out, forgotten, laid to rest with my body Pay your respects to that old church-house door Where I won the battle, and I lost the war
