THE WARREN BROTHERS - Southern Baptist Heartbreak lyrics

rate me

Too much makeup for a Sunday

Virginia Wilson, you oughta be ashamed

Somewhere in the second verse of, 'Have Thine Own Way'

She left an empty pew, she said, "I think that's what I'll do"

And now she's singing hallelujah on a Saturday night

She's stepping out looking for the other life

Press-on nails and a run in her hose

Goin' downtown, down she goes

And she don't care if it's a big mistake

She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace

She's running from that Southern Baptist Heartbreak

"She must be easy," that's what they say

Her skirt's too short for the PTA

But good girls don't smoke and when they kneel, they pray

But she had enough of that come on, back-stabbing, back-sliding love

Now she's singing hallelujah on a Saturday night

She's stepping out looking for the other life

Press-on nails and a run in her hose

Goin' downtown, down she goes

And she don't care if it's a big mistake

She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace

She's running from that Southern Baptist Heartbreak

Sweet Virginia, where have you gone?

Everybody misses you

'Cause there's no one left to catch the stones

Singing hallelujah on a Saturday night

Stepping out, looking for the other life

Press-on nails and a run in her hose

Goin downtown, down she goes

She don't care if it's a big mistake

She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace

She's running from that Southern Baptist

Passin' on that peace that passeth

And livin' out a Southern Baptist Heartbreak
