rebel in my heart

i spent my younger days whoring and drinkin'

running the bars

never once thinkin'

bout the things i should do to try to live right

a different town every day

a different girl every night

this harder living sure takes a toll

this honky tonk life's the only life that i know

i love jesus

and i read the good book

but there are still times i don't do what i should

i ain't making no excuses

got no one to blame

just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

the way that i am won't be a-changin'

that woman of mine

she won't be rearranging

the things that i do or the life that i lead

'cause i go where i want and i go when i please

you can take it or leave it

to me it's all the same

get my hard headed ways from granddaddies last name

i love jesus

and i read the good book

but there are still times i don't do what i should

i ain't making no excuses

got no one to blame

just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

i love jesus

and i read the good book

but there are still times i don't do what i should

i ain't making no excuses

got no one to blame

just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

i ain't making no excuses

got no one to blame

just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

it's the rebel in my heart and this blood in my veins
