I was fifteen, my daddy's old man
Caught me half way through my first beer
He laughed so hard when my face turned green
He said "you come from a long line of sinners like me"
Now me and my brother go to see him some times
But he don't have much to say anymore
So we sit on his headstone with a fifth of Jack D.
Here's to a long line of sinners like me
La de dah de dah
La de dah dah de de
I come from a long line of sinners
like me
My mama had a soft spot for a hell raisin' boy
So she had two more just like him
It takes an angel to raise a family
That comes from a long line of sinners like me
Well now maybe who knows one day I'll settle down
Give my dad a grandson of his own
And when the doctor smacks him, he's gonna take a swing
'Cause he'll come from a long line of sinners like me
La de dah de dah
La de dah dah de de
I come from a long line of sinners like me
On the day I die
I know where I'm gonna go
Me and Jesus got that part worked out
I'll wait at those gates till his face I see
And stand in a long line of sinners like me
Yeah, I'll stand in a long line of sinners like me
La de dah de dah
La de dah dah de de
I come from a long line of sinners like me
La de dah de dah
La de dah dah de de
Here's to way long line of sinners like me
I think I hear the moanin' of sinners like me

I was fifteen when my daddy's old man
Caught me half way through my first beer
He laughed so hard when my face turned green
He said, ‽You come from a long line of sinners like meâ€
Now me and my brother go to see him some times
But he don't have much to say anymore
So we sit on his headstone with a fifth of Jack D
Here's to a long line of sinners like me
La de dah, de dah, la de dah, dah de, de
I come
from a long line of sinners like me
My mama had a soft spot for a hell raisin' boy
So she had two more just like him
It takes an Angel to raise a family
That comes from a long line of sinners like me
Well, now maybe who knows one day I'll settle down

Give my dad a grandson of his own
And when the doctor smacks him, he'll probably take a swing
'Cause he'll come from a long line of
sinners like me
La de dah, de dah, la de dah, dah de, de
I come from a long line of sinners like me
On the day I die, I know where I'm gonna go
Me and Jesus got that part worked out
I'll wait at the gates 'til his face I see
And stand in a long line of sinners like me
I'll stand in a long line of sinners like me
La de dah, de dah, la de dah, dah de, de
I come from a long line of sinners like me
La de dah, de dah, la de dah, dah de, de

I come from a long line of sinners like me
Workin' all this overtime Is good at keepin' me occupied Hell with
Never realized how much she brought to the table 'Till I
Mama used to teach, and preacher used to preach There's angels
No if, and's, but's or maybe's So you wanna be her
I know where I come from How 'bout you? I don't need
I woke up early this morning and i'm already runnin' late there's
Get-ups, gimmicks One hit wonders that don't stick Pretty boys acting tough Boy
If it was up to my pride, I'd be gone If
Only fools would race down Gristmill Road Let alone in angry
I remember waiting by the curb with Mr. Murphy When daddy
It was my senior year I just turned eighteen I was a
Without you here everything's in black and white Without you here
I wasn't trying to do no harm I was just trying
I believe that gas is too damn highAin't nothin' more
I wear a greasy ball capI like my shirt untuckedI

I was fifteen
when my daddy's old man
caught me halfway through
my first beer.
He laughed so hard
when my faced turned red,
he said "You come from a long line
of sinners like me."
Well me and my brother
go to see him sometimes,
but he don't have much to say anymore.
So we sit on his headstone
with a fifth of Jack D
Here's
to a long line
of sinners like me.
[La de da de da, La de da da de de]
I come from a long line
of sinners like me.
My momma had a soft spot
for a hell raising boy,
so she had two more
just like him.
It takes an angel
to raise a family,
that comes from a long line
of sinners like me.
Well now maybe,
who knows?
One day I'll settle down,
give my dad a grandson
of his own.
And when the doctor smacks him
he'll
probably take a swing,
cause he'll come from a long line
of sinners like me.
[La de da de da, La de da da de de]
I come from a long line
of sinners like me.
On the day I die
I know where I'm gonna go,
Me and Jesus got that part
worked out.
I'll wait at the gate
till his face I see.
I'll stand in a long line,
of sinners like me.
I'll stand in a long line,
of sinners like me.
[La de da de da, La de da da de de]
I come
from a long line
of sinners like me.
[La de da de da, La de da da de de]
Here's to a long line
of sinners like me.
I come from a long line
of sinners like me.
