She could start an argument in an empty house
We're living down at the corner of Hope and Get Out
You should see us, we make quite a pair
Best shut the front door, losing that good air
Storm a' brewing, across Hells half acre
Don't come and knock, just save a prayer
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess of misery
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess can't you see
The porch light is on but there's nobody home
Nobody home
Her pants are so tight you can see her religion
Says I'm worthless as gum on her boot heel
Sticking in the kitchen
Butter my butt and call me biscuit
Never could, never would, never should
Best start knocking, just say a prayer
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess of misery
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess oh can't you see
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess of misery
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess oh won't you to see
The porch light is on but there's nobody home, nobody home
Nobody home, bless this mess, bless this mess Nobody home, bless this mess
Nobody home, Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess
Bless this mess, bless this mess, bless this mess
