Lyrics Warren Zevon

Warren Zevon

Dirty Little Religion

I like to think I've earned my reputation

For rushing in where angels fear to tread

I'll take you home to meet the congregation

We'll all get together in my tent

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

I'll make a dirty little convert out of you

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

I'll make a dirty little convert out of you

They treat you like a red-headed stepchild

And try to keep you nailed to the floor

Join us for the countdown to the Rapture

We never turned a sinner from our door

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

I'll make a dirty little convert out of you

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah

Dirty little acolyte

Dirty little one

Learn the fundamentals of desire

Can I get a witness

To my testament?

Can I get an amen from the choir?

I like to think I've earned my reputation

For trying to take the bull by the horns

I'll show you where I get my inspiration

Where we plow and where we plant the corn

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

I'll make a dirty little convert out of you

I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah

Dirty little acolyte

Dirty little one

You'll learn the fundamentals of desire

Can I get a witness

To my testament?

Can I get an amen from the choir?
