I Ain’t Gonna Sin No More

Good people, good people
Members of this congregation
Old man river's waiting for me

Good people, good people
Gonna get me some salvation
Gonna wash my sins away
Hallelujah, help me say

Ain't gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
I'll just drink my gin
'Cause that's to keep me thin
But I ain't gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
I'll roll my eyes for exercise
But I ain't gonna sin no more

Gonna throw one pair of loaded dice
In the river right today
Gonna keep one pair of loaded dice
To pay my rent and keep the wolf away

But I ain't gonna sin no morе
Ain't gonna sin no more
I'll just kick that old gong to get along
But I ain't gonna sin no more

Hallеlujah, hallelujah

St. Louis papa, go your way
I got no love for you today
But leave your address just in case
I feel that urge to drop by your place

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Memphis daddy, you is through
Ain't nothing I can do for you
'Cause that gal of yours, boy, she's alright
But you can call me up some rainy night

But I ain't gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
You hear me talking to you
Stop tempting me, you ol' devil, get behind me
'Cause I ain't gonna sin no more

Gonna cut my numbers right in half
And only play six a day
'Cause that's just in case, if I should hit
It will keep that big bad wolf away

But I ain't gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
I'll just have my fun like anyone
But I ain't gonna sin no more
Glory
