Church Bells Lyrics - Storyteller - Carrie Underwood

Jenny grew up wild, like a blackfoot daisy 

Out in the shack with a blue tick hound 

Broke as hell, but blessed with beauty 

The kind that a rich man can't turn down 

She caught the eye of an oil man dancing 

One summer night in a dime store dress 

She had the looks, he had the mansion 

And you can figure out the rest 

It was all roses, dripping in diamonds 

Sipping on champagne 

She was all uptown, wearing that white gown 

Taking his last name

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing 

And up in the loft, that whole choir's singing, singing 

Fold your hands and close your eyes 

Yeah, it's all gonna be alright 

And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing 

Yeah, they're ringing 

Jenny was hosting Junior League parties 

And having dinner at the country club 

Everyone thought they were Ken and Barbie 

But Ken was always getting way too drunk 

Saturday night, after a few too many 

He came home ready to fight 

And all his money could never save Jenny 

From the devil living in his eyes 

It was all bruises, covered in makeup 

Dark sunglasses 

And that next morning, sitting in the back pew 

Praying with the baptist 

Photos 

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing 

And up in the loft, that whole singing, singing 

Fold your hands and close your eyes 

Yeah, it's all gonna be alright 

You just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing 

Yeah, they're ringing 

Jenny slipped something in his Tennessee whiskey 

No law man was ever gonna find 

And how he died is still a mystery 

But he hit a woman for the very last time 

She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing 

Standing there in a black dress singing, singing 

Fold your hands and close your eyes 

Yeah, it's all gonna be alright 

And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing 

Yeah, they're ringing
