"Red Letter Blues" lyrics

You try to tell me you got nothing to lose
And you never really had the blues
Left me kneeling in a Sunday pew
Praying some other Lord, He could get to you
But you ain't ever gonna change your tune
Your bad habits are gonna catch up to you
Got your legs up all over town
Try to tear a good man's reputation down

Got a letter for me, I got a letter for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright
Got a number for me, I got a number for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright

Said you love me, but you told me a lie
Did you think I wouldn't realize?
Lay down with some other man
Yeah, you said it was two, but then I heard it was ten
She knows do what you best
That the thing that we got is the thing that we had
Even though you're still tying your shoes
I'll be out with your sister, you'll be learning the blues

Got a letter for me, I got a letter for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright
Got a number for me, I got a number for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright

Got a letter for me, I got a letter for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright
Got a number for me, I got a number for you, alright
Been paying for twos on the red letter blues, alright
Yeah
