Maria McKee You Gotta Sin To Be Saved lyrics

Well ya been my Romeo ever since we was in school
An ev’ry good thing I ever felt you have made me feel
Well it’s not that I don’t love you, I’ll love you honey till I die
But I could never be your bride till I tame my wicked side

Chorus:
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Honey show a little faith
You gotta sin to get saved

Well I could never shame you honey, you’re my pride and joy
But what’s a girl to do now Daddy, I’m drownin’ in a sea of boys
Well there ain’t no harm in lookin’ but I look too close sometimes

I’ll never fix my rovin’ eye till I tame my wicked side

Chorus

Now I pray the Lord won’t scorn me if I make an honest vow
To someday wear a dress of white ‘cause scarlet’s what I’m wearin’ now
Well it’s not that I don’t love you, I’ll love you honey till I die
But I could never be your bride till I tame my wicked side

Chorus
