She Sang Amazing Grace

I was hard to handle  the day we said I do

She was just like some fine wine and I was old home brew

I took her to the smoky joints  where she was out of place

While I played those old honky tonk songs  she sang Amazing Grace

But somehow hymns and honky tonks  don’t go together long

But I kept on raising hell and she kept holding on

I’m Faded Love and Cheating Heart and she’s still silk and lace

While I played those honky tonk songs  she sings Amazing Grace

I left for a drinking night  found at any old bar

I’ll dance and I’ll flirt but it’s alright cause she knows where we are

She’s Sunday morning Sunday school while I’m at home sleeping late

Dreaming of those old honky tonk songs  while she sings Amazing Grace

But somehow hymns and honky tonks  don’t go together long

But I kept on raising hell and she kept holding on

I’m Faded Love and Cheating Heart and she’s still silk and lace

While I played those honky tonk songs  she sings Amazing Grace
