Maria McKee - You Gotta Sin to Get Saved

You Gotta Sin to Get Saved

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

Chorus:
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Honey show some 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 'til 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 is what I'm wearin' now
Well it's not that I don't love you, I'll love you honey 'til I die
But I could never be your bride 'til I tame my wicked side

Chorus
