You Won't (The Other Side of the Street) Video (MV)

I've laid men low for nothing
I've been repaid in kind.
I've slept in places I've never been
To look for warmth I couldn't find

I've lived a life meant for no one
I've walked a path of regret
I saw Jesus's light and turned away
Hope he's still got some left

And though the lights are always brighter
On the other side of the street
You'll be more than I could ever be
And I pray to God you won't be like me...
And you won't

I always seemed to make the wrong turn
I never gave a damn, I'd go
And just beat on my breast, say "I did my best"
Then turn when their tears flowed

It's hard to hold onto you innocence
When you can't turn from what's wrong
So you take the cotton fields, and the sinner's sweet deals
And leave them standing with a song

And I know the lights are always brighter
On the other side of the street
You'll be more than I could ever be
And I pray to God you won't be like me...
And you won't...
No, you won't...

I've laid men low for nothing
Been repaid in kind
Slept in places I've never been
And looked for warmth I'd never find..

And though the lights are always brighter
On the other side of the street
You'll be more than I could ever be
And I swear to God you won't be like me
No, you won't...
You won't...
You won't...
