We’re lost in the smoke and the glow of the barroom
filled with people thinking they’re in love
They’re all strangers claiming to be looking for truth
when all they want is to live out their fictions
Because the truth is their truth ain’t worth that much
So when you climb up on that stage tonight
I want to hear that drunkard’s gospel soft and sweet
The irony ain’t lost on me
when you’re singing those songs about Jesus
Baby, I know we ain’t playing for keeps
So one more time tonight I wanna see you get up on that stage
I wanna get happy off of wine and the mandolin
The irony ain’t lost on me
when you’re singing your songs about Jesus
And all it does, baby, is make me wanna sin with you
In the smoke and the glow of the barroom
Oh my god! I think that I am in love
With some stranger claiming to be looking for truth
when all I want is to live out my fiction
Because the truth is my truth ain’t worth a fuck
