I was raised by the good book,
learned to work hard every day
Thought that if you can't say something good
there's nothing good to say
And I caught on pretty early it's no use to work
no harder than you play
So I guess that's how I ended up this way
[Chorus]
Somewhere betwen raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy tyring to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Well I give everything I got, try to give more than I take
For Heaven's sake I keep on smiling
no matter what comes my way
And I may be passin' out on Friday night
By come Sunday I'll be passing the collection plate
[Repeat Chorus]
Yeah I know I'm a sinner, but I've got faith
Oh my good side is what he's gonna see
When I'm standing at them Pearly Gates
He'll have nothing but mercy for me
[Repeat Chorus]
Somewhere betweeen raising hell and amazing grace
