|
When I look back upon my life |
|
It's always with a sense of shame |
|
I've always been the one to blame |
|
For everything I long to do |
|
No matter where or when or who |
|
There's one thing in common, too |
|
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin, it's a sin |
|
Everything I've ever done |
|
Everything I'll ever do |
|
Every place I've ever been |
|
Everywhere I'm going to |
|
It's a sin |
|
At school they taught me how to be |
|
So pure in thought and word and deed |
|
They didn't quite succeed, oh no |
|
For everything I long to do |
|
No matter where or when or who |
|
There's one thing in common, too |
|
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin, it's a sin |
|
Everything I've ever done |
|
Everything I'll ever do |
|
Every place I've ever been |
|
Everywhere I'm going to |
|
It's a sin |
|
Father forgive me, I tried not to do it |
|
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it |
|
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it |
|
Father, you fought me 'cause I didn't care |
|
And I still don't understand, no |
|
So I look back upon my life |
|
Forever with a sense of shame |
|
I've always been the one to blame |
|
For everything I long to do |
|
No matter where or when or who |
|
There's one thing in common, too |
|
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin, it's a sin |
|
Everything I've ever done |
|
Everything I'll ever do |
|
Every place I've ever been |
|
Everywhere I'm going to |
|
It's a sin |
|
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin |
|
It's a sin, it's a sin |
|
Oh yeah, it's a sin, it's a sin |
|
Sin |
