White board churches, white bored lives
Faithless children, cheating wives
It's a lesson I've learned well
Another hole in this Bible belt
You see I'm leaving, Tennesssee
Because my faith is leaving me
In the shade of the mountain pines
I'm cutting loose the ties that bind
I searched for truth in all the wrong places
All I found were a few passing traces
Ink on the lines of the letter you're reading
Can't stand in for me 'cause baby I'm leaving
Sunday morning pews are full
Preachers preaching, his eyes are dull
From the whisky and last night
Cold thin hands on his neighbour's wife
You can tell me I'm a fool
Had it all on a silver spoon
The bed I made has grown cold
And there's rust on the band of gold
Now I'm riding on an old dirt road
Empty wallet and worn out clothes
But my soul is sanctified
I'm walking on the sunny side
I searched for truth etc
