I Feel a Sin Comin' On Lyrics

I've been working like a dog
With my nose to the grind
If I don't loosen up these chains
I'm gonna lose my mind
Been on the straight and narrow far too long
I'm heading downtown
And the Devil's tagging along
Lord have mercy on my soul
I feel a sin coming on

I'm helpless as a child
When the neon calls my name
I'm drawn to pretty ladies like a moth to a flame
That sweet perfume makes it hard to tell my right from my wrong

The flesh is awful weak
And the Devil's mighty strong
Lord have mercy on my soul
I feel a sin coming on
[Chorus]
I try to be good every day
But tonight I hope the angels turn and look the other way
I fight the urge, every time
But to tell the truth
Tonight that apple's looking mighty fine
I can feel a fever deep down in my bones
Lord have mercy on my soul
I feel a sin coming on
Well I ain't exactly good
And I ain't exactly bad
I ain't the smartest child that my momma ever had
I never seem to leave temptation alone

The flesh is awful weak
And the Devil's mighty strong
Lord have mercy on my soul
I feel a sin coming on

[Chorus]
