Don't scandalize his name Put it in your bosom and take it on to God And tell it all to God Used to have some friends To come along with me But when I got converted they turned their backs on me Oh yes, they tured their backs on me. When I was a sinner I knew my way so well But when I come to find out I was on my way to hell I was on my way to hell. |
