"Rebel In My Heart" lyrics

I spent my younger days whoring and drinkin'
Running the bars, never once thinkin'
Bout the things I should do to try to live right
A different town every day, a different girl every night
This harder living sure takes a toll
This honky tonk life's the only life that I know

I love Jesus, and I read the good book
But there are still times I don't do what I should
I ain't making no excuses, got no one to blame
Just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

The way that I am won't be a-changin'
That woman of mine, she won't be rearranging
The things that I do or the life that I lead
'Cause I go where I want and I go when I please
You can take it or leave it, to me it's all the same
Get my hard headed ways from Granddaddies last name

I love Jesus, and I read the good book
But there are still times I don't do what I should
I ain't making no excuses, got no one to blame
Just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins

I love Jesus, and I read the good book
But there are still times I don't do what I should
I ain't making no excuses, got no one to blame
Just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins
I ain't making no excuses, got no one to blame (no one to blame)
Just the rebel in my heart and the blood in my veins
It's the rebel in my heart (it's the rebel in my heart) and this blood in my veins
