I ain’t ever worn a halo I ain’t ever worn a halo Eu nunca usei uma auréola Don’t suppose I ever will Don’t suppose I ever will Acho que nunca irei As far as saving me goes As far as saving me goes Até onde vai me salvar It’s a battle up a hill It’s a battle up a hill É uma batalha colina acima But I keep climbin’, tryin’, fightin’ But I keep climbin’, tryin’, fightin’ Mas eu continuo escalando, tentando, lutando Got a King James in the dresser Got a King James in the dresser Tenho um King James na cômoda And I take it out sometimes And I take it out sometimes E eu tiro às vezes But Lord knows, I ain’t measured But Lord knows, I ain’t measured Mas Deus sabe, eu não medi Up to what’s inside Up to what’s inside Até o que está dentro And they say that that’s okay And they say that that’s okay E eles dizem que está tudo bem But I keep praying for the day But I keep praying for the day Mas eu continuo orando pelo dia That I can open up that good book That I can open up that good book Que eu possa abrir aquele bom livro And Heaven don’t look And Heaven don’t look E o paraíso não olha Like it’s out of reach Like it’s out of reach Como se estivesse fora de alcance When it feels like those apostles When it feels like those apostles Quando parece que aqueles apóstolos Are giving me the gospel Are giving me the gospel Estão me dando o evangelho And not the third degree And not the third degree E não o terceiro grau I just want it to read I just want it to read Eu só quero ler Like Bible verses Like Bible verses Como versículos bíblicos And not the Bible versus me And not the Bible versus me E não a Bíblia contra mim I woke up in last night’s clothes I woke up in last night’s clothes Acordei com as roupas da noite passada And it’s whiskey on my lips And it’s whiskey on my lips E é uísque nos meus lábios If God’s looking down, I know If God’s looking down, I know Se Deus está olhando para baixo, eu sei He’s really looking down on this He’s really looking down on this Ele está realmente olhando para baixo sobre isso But I have faith that I can change But I have faith that I can change Mas eu tenho fé que posso mudar I keep praying for the day I keep praying for the day Eu continuo orando pelo dia That I can open up that good book That I can open up that good book Que eu possa abrir aquele bom livro And Heaven don’t look And Heaven don’t look E o paraíso não olha Like it’s out of reach Like it’s out of reach Como se estivesse fora de alcance When it feels like those apostles When it feels like those apostles Quando parece que aqueles apóstolos Are giving me the gospel Are giving me the gospel Estão me dando o evangelho And not the third degree And not the third degree E não o terceiro grau I just want it to read I just want it to read Eu só quero ler Like Bible verses Like Bible verses Como versículos bíblicos And not the Bible versus me And not the Bible versus me E não a Bíblia contra mim I'm just tryin’ to give myself a little grace I'm just tryin’ to give myself a little grace Eu só estou tentando me dar um pouco de graça ‘Till those words and me get on the same page ‘Till those words and me get on the same page 'Até que essas palavras e eu fiquemos na mesma página And I can open up that good book And I can open up that good book E eu posso abrir aquele bom livro And Heaven don’t look And Heaven don’t look E o paraíso não olha Like it’s out of reach Like it’s out of reach Como se estivesse fora de alcance When it feels like those apostles When it feels like those apostles Quando parece que aqueles apóstolos Are giving me the gospel Are giving me the gospel Estão me dando o evangelho And not the third degree And not the third degree E não o terceiro grau I just want it to read I just want it to read Eu só quero ler Like Bible verses Like Bible verses Como versículos bíblicos And not the Bible versus me And not the Bible versus me E não a Bíblia contra mim
