Bible By The Bed Songtext
It's ten after 2AM he's stumbling in
drunk again tonight
By the way he slams the door
she knows she's in for a fight
She raises her hands up to guard her face
and tries to remember those vows she made

She ain't seen the man she married
since the day they said 'I do'
She's been praying God will change him
for 3 years come this June
And she still has faith, but lately he scares her to death
So she always keeps a gun under the pillow
and a Bible by the bed

The next day he brings flowers home
and swears it won't happen again
She tells herself that she should leave
but she turns the other cheek like Jesus did
and forgives him
By Friday there's new bruises there on her face
They say lovin' him is going to kill her someday

She ain't seen the man she married
since the day they said 'I do'
She's been praying God will change him
for 3 years come this June
And she still has faith, but lately he scares her to death
So she always keeps a gun under the pillow
and a Bible by the bed

It was only two day 'til their anniversary
when a shot rang through the night
They found her face down on the floor
Praying by his side
Saying 'Father, forgive me' as she gripped that gun
He said my dear child, 'what wrong have you done?'
