Love 89

Sally snuck in the back of the church

Her skirts showing off her legs

High-heeled shoes, lipstick smeared

No money in her pocket she was too proud to beg

Raw hands gloved, said she was dirty

Sally was hurt with every word they said

"Halo queen of England" Sally was so weak

Of, oh she does her best work in bed'

Best work in bed, hey, hey, hey

Wait a minute now, Reverend James thought

He'd stress on the Bible as he screamed at everyone

I could see the tease on rock and roll music

Lord help them will they see the sun

Huh? See the sun but if the reverend could have sawn

Sally's soul in his heart, he'd see the lesson he'd got to learn

Learn the new law of salvation and help this generation

Find the worth that's worth the earning, worth the earning

Some people love to spend time for Jesus

But got no time for the sinners that be

And even though He shed His blood

To spread the word love

That makes each and everyone of us free

Free to sing in the choir, free to stand up tall

But still some people ain't got no time for sinners at all

Hey, hey, hey

Take it away, oh

They say that Sally don't belong to folks that are decent

No, no, don't recall at all

So Sally lit a candle for all the sweet tears of Mary

And took a seat by the wall

Say don't make time for Jesus unless you got time

(For the sinners that be)

You know He shed His blood to spread the word love

That makes each and everyone of us free

To sing in the choir, sing and to stand up tall

But still some people ain't got no time for sinners at all

Everybody say hey, say hey

Oh, stop loving so

We've got to accept the call

(To lovin')

Yes, we do y'all, oh, love, sweet love

Love, sweet love never stop
