Things That I Lean On lyrics
by Andrew Ripp
[Verse 1: Wynonna]
Psalm 23 when I'm scared to death
A sleepin' pill and my mind won't rest
A little BB King when the thrill is gone
These are the things that I lean on
[Verse 2: Wynonna, Wynonna & Jason Isbell]
God's grace when I'm lookin' on a dangerous path
Twelves steps when I need to find my way back
My nana's voice on the telephone
These are the things that I lean on
[Chorus: Wynonna, Wynonna & Jason Isbell]
When I've done somethin' sorry that I can't undo
The devil's givin' me another talkin' to
When the spirit's weak and the body's breakin'
The fine line separatin' right from wrong
What ought to be obvious is all but gone
These are the things that I lean on
[Verse 3: Wynonna, Wynonna & Jason Isbell]
The shoulder of a man who's stronger than me
The faith of a child when I can't believe
The timeless soul of a Conway song
'Cause these are the things that I lean on
[Chorus: Wynonna, Wynonna & Jason Isbell, Jason Isbell]
When I've done somethin' sorry that I can't undo
The devil's givin' me another talkin' to
When the spirit's weak and the body's breakin'
The fine line separatin' right from wrong
What ought to be obvious is all but gone
These are the things that I lean on
These are the things that I lean on
[Outro: Wynonna, Wynonna & Jason Isbell]
The shoulder of a man steady and strong
Twelves steps and the 23rd Psalm, yes
These are the things that I lean on
These are the things that I lean on
These are the things that I lean on
Mm
