Links: Religion is the Law is meant to be taken in jest as a poke at a southern town you might see in a western flick. It draws from bluegrass musically and americana lyrically. Lyrics: Long time believers tend to tie their faith to town If the sheriff ain't a preacher they'll demand he take a vow The local congregation takes to turning on their own When they see him keeping all that he's receiving for his work Family's take it personal when kinfolk ain't around Cause leavin' ain't an option friend there ain't no getting out Strangers don't fare well when they don't keep to what they learn And all the western migrants pose a threat to land and home No grifters at the table and no liquor in your jar If ink is on your skin then you ain't gettin very far Trim your hair Give up a part of everything you earn Haven't you heard Religion is the law around these parts Medical ain't ethical and doctors ain't allowed If faith could heal the leaper then it's what we're using now Our prophets tell us how the yearly harvest might turn out If the farmers turn a profit then the Lord has blessed the ground No grifters at the table and no liquor in your jar If ink is on your skin then you ain't gettin very far Trim your hair Give up a part of everything you earn Haven't you heard Religion is the law around these parts No grifters at the table and no liquor in your jar If ink is on your skin then you ain't gettin very far Trim your hair Give up a part of everything you earn Haven't you heard Religion is the law around these parts Follow Caleb Joseph:
