I thought I'd been liv'n in the light of day
I though I'd been redeemed
I prayed my preayers but I went my way
Liv'n just like I'd been

Chorus:
Stand'n
Stand'n on shaky ground

He'd gone to the church all of his life
He'd heard what the preacheer said
But the life he lived did him no good
The truth simply filled his head

Chorus [repeat 3×]

I thought I'd been liv'n in the light of day
I though I'd been redeemed
I prayed my preayers but I went my way
Liv'n just like I'd been

Chorus
