To a girl, who’s simply no good, for a straight-laced
Boy like me
She’ll take, me from a good life, and run me over
Her left and right side
And I, won’t argue with her, nor will I put up
One ounce of fight
‘Cause a sinner always wins this unfair life
Weep, for the good ones, who never know how
To live and die
They tread, so ever softly, and never stray from
The path of light
If, they only knew what, waited for them
On this side
This life, won’t last forever, so drain your water
And bathe in wine
‘Cause a sinner always wins this unfair life
Take me from the good times, and from these straight lines
Drawn with care
‘Cause there, is nothing better, than running free through,
This mad affair
‘Cause a sinner always wins this unfair life
