Went Out To Find A Man Lyrics - Singles - Songdriven

My Daddy was a cop, and I knew where he kept his gun 

Now I wasn't supposed to touch it, sometimes you do what's gotta be done 

Went out to find a man, who put his hands where he should not 

He was my girlfriend's father, I's gonna put him in a plot 

I know the Lord says forgive or be forgiven not 

But those are hard words when you're mind is seared with flame 

Concrete in your heart, and kerosene in your veins 

Went out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Drivin' round Hell bound, I was goin' to find my man 

Some folks need to learn a lesson, before they understand 

Right then the Lord's angel appeared to me 

And He said lest you be judged, judge not 

And His words float high, above my fury's din 

Don't hate the sinner, but you can hate the sin 

Went out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Went out to find my man but instead I was found 

And when I saw my girl she fell to the ground 

She cried thank you Lord for not giving him a shot 

She cried thank you Lord for you and he are all I got 

And the Lord says forgive or be forgiven not 

They're still hard words with forgiveness on your tongue 

Gotta love your enemies despite what they done 

Went out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man 

Went out to find a man, Lord, Went out to find a man 

Out to find a man, Lord, went out to find a man
