I lost my girl on Monday Lookin' for some sympathies I went to church directly The Lord was not there for me Didn't go to work on Tuesday Got to drinkin' around noon I lost my heart to a mean bartender She knocked me off my stool Now the world's spinnin' round too fast Lord won't you let me off on the corner You know a man could take to sinnin' All he needs is a little push in that direction I lost my job on Friday They said "Lack of discipline" I went to church directly Peter said"He was not in" I hit the bar on Sunday Lookin' for some discipline I sold my soul to the mean bartender She said "I'm born again" Now the world's spinnin' round too fast Lord won't you let me off on the corner You know a man could take to sinnin' All he needs is a little pushin' You time it just right You could send me to the lions tonight
