How You've Been Songtext

How You've Been Songtext
Well, come gather ′round children
It's time that you heard
What the devil is after
And how you′re concerned
How it's hard for the living
On the edge of the knife
Well you, you take your shot
And you won't be swinging twice
Well, come hell or high water
And we ain′t got none
In one hand′s a bottle
And the other there ain't one
Oh, it′s hard for the living
So you put out both your eyes
But it's two for the boat man
And you will not pass him by
Now it′s not what you're saying
And it′s not what you said
It's how you been living
Not alive, but not quite dead
Well, it's hard for the living
At least it is for most
But it′s for fear of judgment
You cry Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
It's time that you heard
What the devil is after
And how you′re concerned
How it's hard for the living
On the edge of the knife
Well you, you take your shot
And you won't be swinging twice
Well, come hell or high water
And we ain′t got none
In one hand′s a bottle
And the other there ain't one
Oh, it′s hard for the living
So you put out both your eyes
But it's two for the boat man
And you will not pass him by
Now it′s not what you're saying
And it′s not what you said
It's how you been living
Not alive, but not quite dead
Well, it's hard for the living
At least it is for most
But it′s for fear of judgment
You cry Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
