Shaky Ground by Glenn Kaiser/Darrell Mansfield
I thought I'd been livin' in the light of day
I thought I'd been redeemed
I prayed my prayers but I went my way
Livin' just like I had been
Chorus:
Standin', standin' on shaky ground
He'd gone to the church all of his life
He'd heard what the preacher said
But the life he lived did him no good
The truth simply filled his head
Chorus:
Standin', standin' on shaky ground
Instrumental verse
Chorus:
Standin', standin' on shaky ground (x2)
I thought I'd been livin' in the light of day
I thought I'd been redeemed
I prayed my prayers but I went my way
Livin' just like I had been
Chorus:
Standin', standin' on shaky ground (x2)
