Story Behind The Song
It took me many years to learn that what a lot of churches teach is bad news. I belive the Gospel is good news, not bad. It is grace in the beginning, the middle, and the end.

Lyrics
Well I got my doubts 'bout how well you walk the walk
Everybody knows how much you talk that talk
I'm here today to tell you to your face
Grace is going to put you in your place
You come around on Sunday puffed up like a red balloon
But the things that you do will only secure your doom
Don't you think its time you learned
That without grace, we all burn
(chorus)
Only one man ever walked the walk he talked (repeat!)
No man comes less the Father calls
You say its grace that saves you
But then you got to stand tall
Well if that's true I hear the ringing of the bell
And all that's left to say is "I'll see you in hell"
You think the things you do will get you right with God
But you have to save yourself over and over an awful lot
Man I think its time you learned the bottom line
You'll never get it right, never get it right............
(chorus) (repeat!)
