How to Be Righteous
HOW TO BE RIGHTEOUS
By Lori McKenna

Don't judge me
I will judge myself
I will lie in my bed at night
Wide awake or asleep
I will feel pain
When I know I have given it
Everything I put out to the world
I know comes back to me

But when angels hear the devils callin'
And my vision's unclear I got no sense at all
I'm just hoping I will obey my conscience
I want to learn
How to be righteous...

I saw it on a TV show
I bought the book you know
Paid attention when I thought
The teacher was talking to me
But it's not easy no
To get over, let it go
All these feelings that are burning
And building up inside of me
