Lyrics

Mama, I sinned again I went to bed with another man Know the town won't understand Are you still gon' hold my hand? Sayin', Mama, I broke the rules Gotta face these holy fools It felt cold when they heard the news Guess I better get my Sunday shoes Mama, what's the use? We all saw what they done to you You felt stares when they heard the truth Say, felt stares when they heard the truth Mama, we're not alone Don't know what they do at home But everybody got a bag of bones, hey Oh, we all got a bag of bones Oh, altar's shaking Walls are caving, yeah Hold your blessings I'm confessing, yeah Somebody say a prayer for me 'Cause Papa didn't preach And if he did I'd still be wrong And I've been down on both my knees Why don't you wanna see? Why don't you wanna see? I'm a sinner like you Faher I testify Don't wanna tell another lie So will you look me in the eye? Or am I out of sight and out of mind? Father, I'm not ashamed I got no one to blame So why go naming names If all of us are just the same? Oh, altar's shaking (shaking) Walls are caving (caving) Hold your blessings (blessings) I'm confessing, yeah (I'm confessing) Somebody say a prayer for me 'Cause Papa didn't preach And if he did I'd still be wrong And I've been down on both my knees Why don't you wanna see? Why don't you wanna see? I'm a sinner like you A sinner like you I'm just a sinner like you Like you I'm just a I'm a sinner like you Should I go? Should I stay? Are they ever gonna change? Should we make our amends Just to hear them say amen? If I run, run away Mama, wouldn't you be afraid, no When the stones start to fly Who gon' be by my side? Somebody say a prayer for me 'Cause Papa didn't preach And if he did I'd still be wrong And I've been down on both my knees Why don't you wanna see? Why don't you wanna see? I'm a sinner like you I'm a sinner like you I'm just a sinner like you Like you I'm just a I'm a sinner like you
