[Verse]
The devil laughs in the neon haze
Cheap beer spills where the jukebox plays
God’s whisper lost in the cigarette smoke
I reach for heaven but the bottle’s broke
[Chorus]
Cheap beer for the devil’s crowd
Aged whisky for the ones who bowed
One burns fast one lingers slow
Tell me now which way to go
[Verse 2]
Bar fights echo like a hymn unsung
The preacher’s words where the bitter hang young
I see the crossroads dirt under my boots
One path splinters the other takes roots
[Prechorus]
He grins like sin he tempts like gold
God waits silent his patience old
[Chorus]
Cheap beer for the devil’s crowd
Aged whisky for the ones who bowed
One burns fast one lingers slow
Tell me now which way to go
[Bridge]
I hear laughter under red-hot skies
Feel the weight of a thousand lies
A bottle breaks like a shattered vow
Who’s watching me who’s laughing now
