Met a woman
Got engaged
Time passed
Wedding day
Then my feet turned cold at the tone of those wedding bells
Felt bad everybody got dressed up but I knew
I'd messed up so I had to 'fess up
That all really wanted was just to get drunk as hell
So I jilted that poor woman
And got drunk as hell
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire
That's where I'm bound
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire
That's where I'm bound

Feeling sinful
Needing grace
Sunday morning
Knew the place
So I stumbled into church
And sat down for a spell
A few minutes I felt free of sin
So I polished off my bottle of bathtub gin
And got stinking, dirty, awful drunk as hell
Yeah right there in the back pew
I got drunk as hell
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire
That's where I'm bound
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire
That's where I'm bound
(Alright!)
♪
Well, my drinking buddy passed away
Lightweight, couldn't hang
So I filled my flask and went to say farewell
I stood in the back dressed in black
Tearing up and turning up
Getting lit up good godawful
Greasy drunk as hell
I cried, "I'm coming for you, buddy, that's where I'm bound!"
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire
That's where I'm bound
I'm talking 'bout hellfire (Hellfire!)
Hellfire (Hellfire!)
