Have I Been Faithful Lyrics

Those Poor Bastards Have I Been Faithful

Have I been faithful?
Yes Lord!
Have I been sober?
Yes Lord!
Have I shunned evil?
Yes Lord!
Then hog-tied the Devil?
Yes Lord!

Then why do I suffer,
and why do I stumble?
Why are their demons
around every corner,
and why don't I have
a home or a mother?
Why must I wander and steal to live?
You trample the poor and you reward the rich,
I don't know what I can do or say next
I want redemption like all of the rest
I'm tired of bathing in Heaven's cold piss

But have I been faithful?
Yes Lord!
