Under the Gallows - God's Plan Lyrics

Raised by a mean old man
He liked to show me his back hand
And you will know the same
Why'd you ever mention her name?
There are things in life I hold
Close to my old soul
Like God, my kids and friends
But that woman makes me who I am
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
You just close those eyes
And pray that I don't find you tonight
You've been lying
You do it all the time
I know murder's so much worse
But this is your fault for talking to her
Now how can I make you see
What this woman means to me?
I've got just the place for you
'Neath the ground about a foot or two
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
Son, now just calm down
I ain't gonna kill you... here in town
Come on get out the truck
Those tears won't do you any good
It's not becoming of your clan
To speak a bad word of my woman
"There's a hole, just watch your step
No, that's the one just over there"
Now kneel and ask God to absolve
You of all the bad that you've done
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
This doesn't hurt one bit
Squeeze the trigger, it gives a little kick

Raised by a mean old man
He liked to show me his back hand
And you will know the same
Why'd you ever mention her name?
There are things in life I hold
Close to my old soul
Like God, my kids and friends
But that woman makes me who I am
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
You just close those eyes
And pray that I don't find you tonight
You've been lying
You do it all the time
I know murder's so much worse
But this is your fault for talking to her
Now how can I make you see
What this woman means to me?
I've got just the place for you
'Neath the ground about a foot or two
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
Son, now just calm down
I ain't gonna kill you... here in town
Come on get out the truck
Those tears won't do you any good
It's not becoming of your clan
To speak a bad word of my woman
"There's a hole, just watch your step
No, that's the one just over there"
Now kneel and ask God to absolve
You of all the bad that you've done
We all gotta die someday
By the plan that God has made
This doesn't hurt one bit
Squeeze the trigger, it gives a little kick
