[Verse 1]
I came down the mountain
Draggin’ our love affair
Put on a pretty little number
I’m wearing you still
It was a hell of a scene at daddy’s feast
Nobody saw it coming, but the little red devil in me
He has a funny way saying forever too fast
Don’t get mad, can’t blame a tramp
For something he don’t have
I get on my knees and beg you
[Chorus]
Hear my sinner’s prayer
I am what I am
And I don’t wanna break the heart of any other man
But you, but you
Hear my sinner’s prayer
It’s the only one I know
It sure as hell don’t rhyme
But it’s as good as, good as, good as, good as gold
[Verse 2]
Got a baby sister who looks just like me
She wants nothing more than a man to please
Maybe she’s in too deep
Her love for him ain’t cheap
But it breaks just like a knockoff piece
From Fulton Street
The man’s got a gift for getting what he wants
He’s thirsty when he drinks
Gets on the brink, and throws her off
I get on my knees and beg you
[Chorus]
Hear my sinner’s prayer
I am what I am
And I don’t wanna break the heart of any other man
But you, but you
Hear my sinner’s prayer
It’s the only one I know
It sure as hell don’t rhyme
But it’s as good as, good as, good as, good as gold
Good as, good as, good as, good as gold
[Bridge]
I can carry you, but not your ghosts
Wish I had the faith, but I don’t know, oh
