Iris Dement - God May Forgive You (But I Won't) lyrics

rate me

You say that you're born again

cleansed of your former sins

You want me to say "I forgive and forget"

But you've done too much to me

Don't you be touching me,

go back and touch all those women you've made

Chorus:

'cause God may forgive you, but I won't

Yes, Jesus loves you, but I don't

They don't have to live with you and neither do I

You say that you're born again, well so am I

God may forgive you, but I won't

and I won't even try

Well, the kids had to cry for you

I had to try to do

things that the Dad should do

since you've been gone

Well, you really let us down

You may be Heaven 'bound

but you've left one hell of a mess here at home

(chorus)

and I won't even try
