Wages Of Sin Lyrics

"The Wages Of Sin" by The Rainmakers from _Tornado_ -----
---------------------------------------------- I was
praying last night when an angel broke the line She said
"I'm gonna have to put you on hold for a time" I said
"Hold like Hell, let me talk to the Boss" She said "Sorry
sucker (sinner), it's the Boss's day off" And I realized
then that the wages of sin Was two bucks an hour and
working weekends I was ignoring the thief who was lashed
to the cross He cried "Help me get this son-of-a-bitch
off" I said "I would if I could, I can't so I won't Well
I wouldn't want you messing your hair up, so don't" And I
realized then that the wages of sin Was all the lumber
you can carry, all the nails you can bend The wages of sin,the reward of fear Is worrying and fretting every
second of the year, If Heaven is guilt, no sex and no
show Then I'm not sure if I really want to go Oh The
wages of sin, the price that you pay, Is worrying and
fretting every second of the day, The Church and the
State, your God and Countrykind One gets your body, the
other gets your mind Mary, Mary Magdalene, how 'bout a
date? You've been wasting your time staying up so late
Your boyfriend's dead, the word is you're a whore Just
about then I heard a knock on the door And I realized
then that the wages of sin Was a bad reputation and too
many friends The wages of sin (repeats)
