Lyrics Straight and Narrow - Iron & Wine feat. Ben Bridwell
The
trouble
with
the
straight
and
the
narrow
Is
its
so
thin,
I
keep
sliding
off
to
the
side
And
the
devil
makes
good
use
of
these
hands
of
mine
And
if
Jesus
is
the
straight
path
that
saves
Then
I′m
condemned
to
live
my
whole
life
on
the
curb
On
the
crossroad
with
the
devil,
I'll
dwell
and
I′ll
count
my
years
You
know
that
I
got
a
little
something
I
should
say
I
guess
that
I'm
just
so
easily
led
astray
It's
alright
because
I
know
my
own
way
back
home
from
here
And
I
don′t
fall
of
the
wagon
you
know
I
take
a
dive
and
go
as
deep
as
I
can
go
Don′t
hold
your
breath
cause
I'm
coming
up
slow,
this
time.
And
the
trouble
with
the
straight
and
the
narrow
Is
its
so
thin,
I
keep
sliding
off
to
the
side
And
the
devil
makes
good
use
of
these
hands
of
mine
You
know
a
little
problem
or
two
I
guess
that
I
keep
on
taking
a
few
I′ve
been
told
its
not
the
best
thing
that
I
can
do,
right
now
And
I
don't
go
looking
for
my
sins
you
know
They
come
out
waiting,
and
I
just
get
on
and
go
Don′t
hold
your
breath
cause
I'm
coming
up
slow
this
time
And
the
trouble
with
the
straight
and
the
narrow
Is
its
so
thin,
I
keep
sliding
off
to
the
side
And
the
devil
makes
good
use
of
these
hands
of
mine
And
if
Jesus
is
the
straight
path
that
saves
Then
I′m
condemned
to
live
my
whole
life
on
the
curb
On
the
crossroad
with
the
devil,
I'll
dwell
and
I'll
count
my
years
And
the
devil
makes,
the
devil
makes,
the
devil
makes,
good
use
of
these
hands
of
mine
And
the
devil
makes,
the
devil
makes,
the
devil
makes,
good
use
of
these
hands
of
mine
