Heart Like Mine lyrics

I ain't the kind you take home to mama

I ain't the kind to wear no ring

Somehow I always get stronger

When I'm on my second drink

Even though I hate to admit it

Sometimes I smoke cigarettes

The Christian folks say I should quit it

And I just smile and say "God Bless"

Cause I heard Jesus He drank wine

And I bet we'd get along just fine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind

And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine

Daddy cried when he saw my tattoo

But said he loved me anyway

My brother got the brains of the family

So I thought I'd learn to sing

Cause I heard Jesus He drank wine

And I bet we'd get along just fine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind

And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine

I'll fly away from it all one day

And I'll fly away

These are the days that I will remember

When my names called on a roll

He'll meet me with two long-stemmed glasses

And make a toast to me coming home

Cause I heard Jesus He drank wine

And I bet we'd get along just fine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind

And I bet He'd understand

Understand a heart like mine

Oh yes He would
