God bless the man who stumbles
God bless the man who falls
God bless the man who yields to temptation

God bless the woman who suffers
God bless the woman who weeps
God bless the children trying her patience


Trouble getting over it is what you're in for
So pour yourself another

'Cause it'll take a steady pair of hands

Holy or unholy ghost

Well now I can't tell
But either way you cut it
You should get some distance if you plan

To take a stand

God bless the house divided

God bless the weed in the wheat
God bless the lamp lit under a bushel


I discovered hell to be the poison in the well

So I tried to warn the others of the curse

But then my body turned on me
I dream that for eternity my family would burn
Then I awoke, with a wicked thirst

By my baby's yellow bed I kissed her forehead
And rubbed her little tummy
And wondered if she'll soon despise the smell

Of the booze on my breath, like her mom
Through a darkened mirror I have seen my own reflection
And it makes me want to be a better man

After another drink

God bless the man at the crossroads

God bless the woman who still can't sleep
God bless the history that doesn't repeat
