I've been working like a dog |
|
With my nose to the ground |
|
If I don't loosen up these chains |
|
I'm gonna lose my mind |
|
Been on the straight and narrow far too long |
|
I'm heading downtown and the devil's taggin' 'long |
|
Lord, have mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
|
I'm helpless as a child |
|
When the neon calls my name |
|
I'm drawn to pretty ladies |
|
Like a moth to a flame |
|
That sweet perfume makes it hard |
|
To tell my right from my wrong, oh |
|
Yeah, the feeling's awful weak |
|
And the devil's mighty strong |
|
Lord, have mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
|
I try to be good, every day |
|
But tonight |
|
I hope the angels |
|
Turn and look the other way |
|
I fight the urge, everytime |
|
But to tell the truth |
|
Right now that apple's looking mighty fine |
|
I can feel a fever |
|
Deep down in my bones |
|
Lord, haver mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
|
Well, I ain't exactly good |
|
And I ain't exactly bad |
|
I ain't the smartest child |
|
That my mama ever had |
|
I never seem to leave temptation alone, no |
|
Yeah, the feeling's awful weak |
|
And the devil's mighty strong |
|
Lord, have mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
|
I try to be good, every day |
|
But tonight |
|
I hope the angels |
|
Turn and look the other way |
|
I fight the urge, everytime |
|
But to tell the truth |
|
Right now that apple's looking mighty fine |
|
I can feel a fever |
|
Deep down in my bones |
|
Lord, haver mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
|
I can feel a fever |
|
Deep down in my bones |
|
Lord, haver mercy on my soul |
|
I feel a sin comin' on |
