| 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
It's one thing in common too
It's a sin, it's a sin, what a sin, it's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I'll ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to, it's a sin
My father taught me how to be
So pure of thought and word and deed
But he 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 sin, such a sin, it's a sin, it's a sin
Everything I've ever done
And everything I'll ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to, it's a sin, it's a sin
Yes everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common too
It's a sin, it's a sin, what a sin, it's a sin
It's a sin |
