i lost my girl on monday
looking for some sympathy
i went to church directly
the lord was not there for me
didn't go to work on tuesday
got to drinking around noon
i lost my heart to a mean bartender
she knocked me off my stool
now the world's spinning round too fast lord
won't you let me off on the corner
you know a man could take to sinning
all he needs's a little push in that direction
i lost my job on friday
said a lack of discipline
i went to church directly
peter said he was not in
i hit the bar on sunday
looking for some discipline
i sold my soul to the mean bartender
she said i'm born again
now the world's spinning round too fast lord
won't you let me off on the corner
you know a man could take to sinning
all he needs's a little pushing
you time it just right
you could send me to the lions tonight
