I make my rounds of the country churches   Playing my guitar for free   My repertoire is one hundred ninety   Songs to God's glory      Now, I'm pickin' to beat the devil   And you know he's on my tail   And the Lord's in my fingers   He won't let me fail      I found myself in a roadside bar room   I was drinking my time away   Kentucky woman and Tennessee whiskey   It's gonna be hell to pay      A worn out Chevy and a beat up Martin   Is all I'll ever own   My worthless life is dedicated   To bringing God's children home      Now, I'm pickin' to beat the devil   And you know he's on my tail   And the Lord's in my fingers   He won't let me fail      Fourteen songs and a temperance sermon   That's what a good meal buys   For a little extra there's a guitar solo   Called, 'Reward In The Sky'      Now, I'm pickin' to beat the devil   And you know he's on my tail   And the Lord's in my fingers   And He won't let me fail      Yes, I'm pickin' to beat the devil   And you know he's on my tail   And the Lord is in my fingers   And He won't let me fail
