Full Song Lyrics

Verse 1:

Living in the darkness of my own will

Life was a struggle it was all uphill

Dazed and confused all hope was dead

Then Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed

 Girls X2:

(Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed I started out by reading all the words in red)

 Verse 2:

I was an earthly man stubborn as a mule

Full of pride an playing the fool

Dreams of wealth played in my head

Then Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed

 Chorus:

Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed

I started out by reading all the words in red

Told about a man that could calm the seas

Raise the dead and set men free

The son of God the way and the light

A ten dollar room held the meaning of life

When Gideon left a bible

By my flop house bed

 Girls X2:

(Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed I started out by reading all the words in red)

Chorus:

 Girls X2:

(Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed I started out by reading all the words in red)

Chorus:

 Girls X 1:

(Gideon left a bible by my flop house bed I started out by reading all the words in red)
