I tried hard to mend my
wicked ways
Acted like a lunatic for years
Lord knows I try
to be good
I'd keep my promises
if only I could
You count your blessings that
I can't rely on you
And I tried
And I tried
And I tried
And I tried
Clutch your pictures
of the Pope
Pray to God for love and hope
Bring the Virgin home
for luck
Bolt the door down,
keep it shut
I've done things I never
thought I'd do
Sure it helps to lose myself
in you
A little time and I'll be
all right
C'mon sugar let's go out
tonight
Forgive your trespasses
And all that we've been through
That sinking feeling
When you are leaving
All I believed in
Walks out my door
I tried hard to mend my
wicked ways
The damage's done, there's
nothing left to save
Clutch your pictures of the
Pope
(just like I told you)
Pray to God for love and hope
(just like I warned you)
Bring the Virgin home
for luck
(just like I told you)
Bolt the door down,
keep it shut
(just like I warned you)
