pardon my dust

Pardon my dust, Excuse the mess We're makin' something new out of all of this I'm sayin' my prayers And I'm tryin' to change So give me some time 'Cause I'm still findin' my way Why are you lookin' at me this way Pointing your finger, shakin' your head How 'bout some love along the way instead? Pardon my dust Excuse this mess I've left a trail of debris, so you've gotta be Very careful where you step I've made some mistakes (so what) Done quite a few things wrong But could you roll up your tidy sleeves And help a brother along Why are you lookin' at me that way Pointing your finger, shakin' your head How 'bout some love along the way instead? Pardon my dust Excuse the mess Please don't be another judge For me to try to impress Stop calling me names Stop casting your stones Let the Good Lord sort this all out When we all get home, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! (INSTRUMENTAL) Pardon my dust Excuse my mess And help me believe, there's gonna be Something beautiful on the other side of this! Have patience with me I'm still sweepin' floors So pardon my dust And I'll pardon yours
