At the bottom of my dresser drawer forgotten, put away
There laid momma's Bible, she gave me on my birthday
The cover of that old good book is showin' out its age
And just like me, my cover's worn, I've seen my better days
When I was still a young boy, I've seen trouble come along
I had a chip up on my shoulder, I still knew right from wrong
I fought my way through high school and I might've lost my way
Oh yes, I've done a lot of foolish things
But still found time to read
It's the cover not the pages that you see here tonight
A man that's worn and tattered has a soul that's filled with light
And I know I'm a sinner, but there's a saint inside of me
Yes, I'm the pages not the cover, if you could look inside you'd see
Now it's ten years later, and I've learned a thing or two
I try to keep my distance from those things
That a troubled man would do
And I ask for forgiveness every day from up above
I'm still trying not to hate, I'm still learning how to love
It's the cover not the pages that you see here tonight
A man that's worn and tattered has a soul that's filled with light
And I know I'm a sinner, but there's a saint inside of me
Yes, I'm the pages not the cover, if you could look inside you'd see
Well, I'm the pages not the cover, if you could look inside you'd see
Yes, I'm the pages not the cover, if you could look inside you'd see
