It's a sin

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 when or where or who

Has 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 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

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has 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 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

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 when or where or who

Has 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 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 sin

It's a,it's a,it's a,it's a sin
