Текст песни Three Nails and a Cross - George Strait

He was sitting on the front porch of a halfway house
chaining cigarettes and drinking coffee
I was walking by on my way home, stopped and said, "Hello, how are you?"
He looked at me and said "I've seen better days"
I looked at him and said, "There's a better way"
Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
Just like you I was lost and that's Hell to have to live with
I've sat on that front porch where you're sittin' now
I kept looking deep inside ‘til I figured out
Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
She was sittin' on her bed crying crocodiles
Sixteen ain't a good age to be pregnant
And she thinks mom and dad don't love her anymore
Like the boy who swore he always would but doesn't
She turns and sees that Bible layin' by her bed
And she crumbles to her knees as she bows her head
Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
"LORD, help me 'cause I'm lost and that's Hell to have to live with"
"I need you more than ever now without a doubt"
"I've made a big mistake. Can you help me out"
Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
