It's sad how sometimes we don't speak up and stand up for what's right. If you can't stand for something, you'll fall for anything!!!!

Wonderful work tape by Heather Morris

V1
Woke up this mornin', first thing I did
was rolled on over and lit me a cancer stick
hacked and I coughed, said, "Lord I need to stop"
but who am I kiddin', I never try to quit
Lord said you're...

Chorus
One Sin Away from heaven
One Sin Away from never again
Oh you're One Sin Away from one foot in the grave
you're One Sin Away from heaven

V2
My Mama called at ten, said, "Grandma did it again"
took out another mail box, and a white picket fence
she's goin' on eighty three, but she won't give up her keys
there's never a right time, when next time might be a kid
Oh Grandma's

Repeat Chorus

V3
Neighbors are fightin' and little Sally's cryin'
you turn up the music and pretend nothing's happenin'
what about the bruises, and all the missed days from school
gonna watch it on the news, or save Sally from dyin'
Will you be

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
He gave us free will,
will you stand up or be still
and be

Repeat Chorus
