Thomas jefferson, he had slaves
In the land of the free and the home of the brave
I read about him in the seventh grade
Hes forgiven
Jfk he loved to run around
He and norma jean painted that town
But we know him as a hero now
Hes forgiven
(chorus)
Baby I know I did you wrong
Thats why Im here, thats why youre gone
I dont know just what Ive done
To be one of the unforgiven
I had an uncle, he dodged the draft
They said step forward and he stepped back
But we all cut him some slack
Hes forgiven
Judas betrayed the christ with a kiss
Cartel kings get a slap on the wrist
Jesse james and billy the kid
Theyre all forgiven
(repeat chorus|solo)
Ive made mistakes, thats what life is
But there aint a thing I cant live with
And even though you cant forgive
Youre forgiven
