You can break my back
You can break my bones
You can kill my body
But never kill my soul
When I lay six feet
Deep in the cold
Know I'm headed home
Where I belong
See the good lord giveth and he taketh away
If this is my ending I'll be okay
When you forget me and the memories fade
Don't put no roses upon my grave
Devil with a heart of gold
Purgatory is where I'll go
Until the angels and demons decide who reaps my soul
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
You can take my water
You can take my plate
Blame the holy father
For the way I was raised
Stand by the side line
And count my days
But when I'll face my grave
I'll be brave
See the good lord told me to get me to church
I told him I'm drunk I don't think it will work
Don't wipe my tears, just turn them to wine
One full glass and I'll be fine
Devil with a heart of gold
Purgatory is where I'll go
Until the angels and demons decide who reaps my soul
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
Come heaven or hell,
I'll never ever change
No I will be the same
Until my dying day
