Please, please, please forgive me For things I have done I surrender I'm no defender of The Prodigal Son Well I believe, that I have sinned, Won't you take me back again? Walking through a brave natural pasture dealing all the goods you find Sneaking around the corner drugstore, robbing all the old men blind Mothers, fathers, everybody, Listen to your kin Don't forget it, you'll regret it, Give them chance again They may have lied and hurt you so, destroyed your faith in haste Take them back, renew their life, There is no time to waste I say some are born, And some are had, All better read let them be glad Your time is up before you start, A lonely life will drown you hard (Rest baby) Please, please, please forgive me For things I have done Oh I surrender I'm no Defender of the Prodigal Son
