Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I used to crawl to that corner store
Shaking hands
Last call again
Brown paper bag like a loaded sin
Killing my body
Starving my soul
Woke up broke on a Thursday noon
Phone full of fights I never recall
Mama said
“Son
This ain’t you”
But I could not quit
I could not halt
[Chorus]
Then I traded the bottle for the Bible
Put that poison down at His feet
Jesus walked into my midnight
Pulled me up out that deep
I was drowning in my sorrow
He broke them chains off me
I traded the bottle for the Bible
And Jesus set me free (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
I cracked that Book like a last-ditch bet
Red letters cut right through my haze
“Come to Me
All you worn and wrecked”
Felt like He was calling my name
Poured that whisky down the kitchen sink
Watched it swirl like the life I’d known
Whispered
“Lord
I can’t
But I think You can”
And I wasn’t so alone
[Chorus]
So I traded the bottle for the Bible
Put that poison down at His feet
Jesus walked into my midnight
Pulled me up out that deep
I was drowning in my sorrow
He broke them chains off me
I traded the bottle for the Bible
And Jesus set me free (set me free)
[Bridge]
Now my hands still shake some nights
But they’re reaching up in praise
Temptation knocks at my old front door
I just show it that empty case
[Chorus]
‘Cause I traded the bottle for the Bible
Put that poison down at His feet
Jesus walked into my midnight
Turned my graveyard into peace
I was drowning in my sorrow
Now His living water runs in me
I traded the bottle for the Bible
And Jesus set me free (yeah)
Jesus set me free

Style
rock, Gritty blues-rock with male vocals; swampy slide guitar and walking bass under a steady backbeat. Verses stay low and smoky with plenty of space between vocal lines; chorus opens up with gang shouts on the title hook and overdriven rhythm guitars. Short, singing lead guitar fills answer the vocal phrases, organ pad sneaks in on the last chorus for a lifted, gospel-tinged finale., blues
