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
He's forgiven
Jfk he loved to run around
He and norma jean painted that town
But we know him as a hero now
He's forgiven
(chorus)
Baby i know i did you wrong
Thats why i'm here, thats why you're gone
I don't know just what i've 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
He's forgiven
Judas betrayed the christ with a kiss
Cartel kings get a slap on the wrist
Jesse james and billy the kid
They're all forgiven
(repeat chorus|solo)
I've made mistakes, thats what life is
But there ain't a thing i can't live with
And even though you can't forgive
You're forgiven
