Monday Morning Church

Alan Jackson

6

You left your Bible on the dresser

So I put it in the drawer

'Cause I can't seem to talk to God without yelling anymore

And when I sit at your piano

I can almost hear those hymns

The keys are just collecting dust

But I can't close the lid

[Chorus:]

You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church

It used to be so full of faith

And now it only hurts

And I can hear the devil whisper

Things are only getting worse

You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church

The preacher came by Sunday

Said he missed me at the service

He told me Jesus loves me

But I'm not sure I deserve it

'Cause the faithful man that you loved

Is nowhere to be found

Since they took all that he believed

And laid it in the ground

[Repeat Chorus]

I still believe in Heaven

And I'm sure you've made it there

But as for me without your love, girl

I don't have a prayer

[Repeat Chorus]

You left your Bible one the dresser

So I put it in the drawer
