Heart Like Mine Lyrics
I ain't the kind you take home to mama
I ain't the kind to wear no ring
Somehow I always get stronger
When I'm on my second drink
Even though I hate to admit it
Sometimes I smoke cigarettes
Christian folks say I should quit it
I just smile and say "God bless"
'cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
Daddy cried when he saw my tattoo
Said he'd love me anyway
My brother got the brains of the family
So I thought I'd learn to sing
'cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
I'll fly away
From it all one day
I'll fly away
These are the days that I will remember
When my name's called on the roll
He'll meet me with two long-stemmed glasses
Make a toast to me coming home
'cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
Oh, yes He would
I ain't the kind to wear no ring
Somehow I always get stronger
When I'm on my second drink
Sometimes I smoke cigarettes
Christian folks say I should quit it
I just smile and say "God bless"
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
Said he'd love me anyway
My brother got the brains of the family
So I thought I'd learn to sing
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
From it all one day
I'll fly away
When my name's called on the roll
He'll meet me with two long-stemmed glasses
Make a toast to me coming home
And I bet we'd get along just fine
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine

I think its about a girl who couldnt find a place to fit in because she did so many bad things that people are telling her she is never going to heavin. but to all you people who think that well your wrong we still have that chance to go. so FUCKING back off.
i think it's about a girl who was too afraid to really let herself fully love anybody. she built a wall when it came to materialistic relationships. the only relationship and one she could fully devote herself to was God and she was prepared for that final day hence the lyric, "When my name's called on the roll He'll meet me with two long-stemmed glasses Make a toast to me coming home" No man in her eyes is good enough because she only has room to fully devote herself to Him.
She's singing about the things in her life that make her different. She's not the norm, she's the opposite of what people consider right. But she's saying that whatever she does, bad or good, that God loves her and that He would understand her. I can relate to this song to a tee. Great song.
Even though she doesnt fit in with the Christian stereotypes that judge her, she knows that her relationship with Jesus is solid and doesn't really give a flip what they think.. Love this song, would love to hang out drinking wine with Jesus!
