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 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 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 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 I can carry you, but not your ghosts Wish I had the faith, but I don't know, oh 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 Good as, good as, good as, good as gold
