Seven Deadly Sins

(álbum: At It Again - 1968)

Some say that kissing's a sin
But tell me how can that be true
For kissing has been in this world
Since the very first day there was two

[Chorus:]
No if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prison would be full of folks who had a (...) or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty the poor folk would get none

(first time kiss, second time bet,
third time curse, fourth time smoke, fifth time drink)

Some say that gambling's a sin
But I'll bet you 15 to 1
That gambling has been in this world
Since horses and greyhounds could run

[Chorus]

Some say that swearing's a sin
But were is the man that can tell
For sw[Chorus]earing has been in this world
Since the devil was told 'go to hell'

[Chorus]

And some say that smoking's a sin
But a pipe now and then is enough
But smoking has been in this world
Since Adam taught Eve how to puff

[Chorus]

Some say that drinking's a sin
But a gargle is fine now and then
For drinking has been in this world
For ever and ever amen

[Chorus]
