Same Ol' Sinner

Temptation rips my flesh Wages of a sin is death I say the lust of the heart burns my eye I got one more excuse - just a little white lie Waiting for the moment to sin Telling myself that I won't give in I feel the whip, but a man must change Say Lord forgive me now, I'm going to change my ways [chorus] Same ol' sinner Same ol' sinner Wearing the chains I get the same ol' sinner Reaching out to the burning flame Sweet summer sweat, she's faithfully tamed Smiling pretty is her charm I got the gun in my hand, got the needle in my arm [chorus] Same ol' sinner Same ol' sinner Wearing the chains I get the same ol' sinner I believe your lies, desire inside The truth I know will hurt Your devil-eyes, I can't deny I know what lust is worth The devil has a healthy appetite Chew you up and spit you out tonight Tell you it's love when it's only lust Ashes to ashes and dust to dust [chorus] Same ol' sinner Same ol' sinner Wearing the chains I get the same ol' sinner I get the same ol' sinner I get the same ol' sinner Wearing the chains I get the same ol' sinner
