Alabama 3 - The Old Purple Tin (9% Of Pure Heaven) lyrics

[Alabama 3 - The Old Purple Tin 9% Of Pure Heaven lyrics]

I lived with my momma 'Til I was sixteen
Old time religion the sweetest of dreams
And now that I'm aging and conscience is dim
In my left hand the Bible
In my right an old purple tin

I went to the doctors 'Cause, I was unwell
He said "My Boy you are shot to hell
I'm gonna write you a prescription
For some pure heroin"
But, I traded that sucker
For a 6 pack of that old purple tin

The old purple tin the old purple tin
Sweet testament Lord
To the state that I'm in
I've drunk it all day
I have drunk it all night the old purple tin
Oh Lord, lights up my life

I am in prison the light never shines


I can't see my Bible so dark is the night
I'm waiting for letters that never get sent
All my brothers and sisters
On the corner with that old purple tin

The old purple tin the old purple tin
Sing it now sweet testament Lord
Sweet 9% Lord to the state that I'm in
I have drunk it all day
I have drunk it all night the old purple tin
Oh Lord, lights up my life
It lights up my life

It lights up my life lights up my life

Good night Larry
