Temptation rips my flesh,
The wages of sin is death,
I say the lust of the heart burns my eye,
I got one more excuse, just another white lie.
Waiting for the moment to sin, telling myself that I won’t give in,
I feel the whip, must repent today,
Say, “Lord, forgive me now, of my evil ways.”
Same ol’ sinner,
Same ol’ sinner, wearing the chains,
Same ol’ sinner.
Reaching out to the burning flame,
Sweet summer sweat, she’s faithfully tamed,
Smiling pretty is her charm,
I got the gun in my hand, girl, oh I got the needle in my arm,
Sinner.
Same ol’ sinner,
Same ol’ sinner, wearing the chains,
I’m just the same ol’ sinner.
Believe your lies, desire inside,
The truth, I know, will hurt,
Your devil eyes I can’t deny,
I know what lust is worth now.
The devil has a healthy appetite,
Raise the heat, you’re in the fire tonight,
He’ll tell you it’s love when it’s only lust,
Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust.
Same ol’ sinner,
Same ol’ sinner,
I’m wearing the chains,
I’m just a same ol’ sinner,
Same ol’ sinner,
I’m just a same ol’ sinner, wearing the chains,
I’m just a same ol’ sinner,
Oh.
