Lyrics of Hand Me Down My Bible by The High Kings
intro
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
verse
I like my liquor and my livin' hard
May the Lord save my soul
My salvation was the turn of a card
My heart was black as coal
pre-chorus
Now everybody's got the right to go wrong
Everybody's got to sing my song
Everybody's got the right to wrong
Sing my song, sing my song
chorus
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
verse
I don't give a damn for any man
As all the world can see
The time has come to make a stand
Won't you shine your light on me
pre-chorus
Now come on people light your life begin
Come on now, let the sun shine in
Come on people, let your life begin
Let it in, let it in
chorus
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
verse
Well now, I've been a wreck
Yeah, I've been all at sea
But now I'm back on solid ground
I sang so low they gave up on me
Well I was lost and now I'm found
pre-chorus
But everybody's got the right to go wrong
Everybody's got to sing my song
Everybody's got the right to wrong
Sing my song, sing my song
chorus
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
chorus
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
Oh-oh, Glorio
Now I'm the Lord's disciple
Oh-oh, Glorio
Hand me down my bible
