Lyrics
[Dreckige E-Gitarre, tiefer Bass, langsamer Southern-Groove]
...
[Verse 1]
I’ve forgiven more sins than a church bell knows,
Watched good folks turn bad and bad blood grow.
I swallowed my pride, I buried my rage,
But every damn mercy just turned another page.
I gave ’em my hand, I gave ’em my word,
Kept my mouth shut when I should’ve been heard.
But mercy runs thin when the same knife cuts—
You get one free pass, then you better duck.
[Chorus]
’Cause I forgave ’em often,
But it took too damn long,
Till somebody stepped up
And hit me where I’m from.
I ain’t looking for trouble,
I ain’t begging for war,
But when you push this outlaw—
You get one more in the mouth.
[Verse 2]
Dust on my boots, whiskey on my breath,
I’ve danced with the devil and stared down death.
I know what a promise is worth in this town—
Not much when the sun goes down.
I’ve let things slide that should’ve left scars,
Let fools run their mouths from the back of bars.
But patience ain’t weakness, remember that well—
Even a good man’s got a bottomless hell.
[Chorus]
Yeah, I forgave ’em often,
But it took too damn long,
Till somebody stepped up
And hit me where I’m from.
I ain’t looking for trouble,
I ain’t begging for war,
But when you push this outlaw—
You get one more in the mouth.
[Bridge – gesprochen, tief und rau]
I don’t carry grudges…
I carry lessons.
And some lessons
gotta be learned the hard way.
[Final Chorus]
I’ve forgiven brothers,
I’ve forgiven fools,
I’ve forgiven devils
Breaking every rule.
But forgiveness ain’t forever,
And I finally found out—
You can push a man too far…
Then you get one more in the mouth.
[Outro]
So pour me one bourbon.
Let that old six-string cry.
I’ve forgiven enough sins
To last me till I die.
And if you come knocking
With that same old doubt—
Better think twice, son…
Before you find out.
