Holy Ghost is not my name, no no

Holy Ghost is not my name

Girl I've never been no saint, no no

So I'm just gonna keep it plain

I like the way you're wearing those tight blue jeans

And I see a little devil in your eyes

So let's go back to mine and have a kind of revival

That will put that Holy Ghost out your mind

Ever since I was little blue-eyed boy

My mama tried to teach me the way

She told me "son, when you're a man and you start liking them girls,

Remember then now what I say"

She told me "Love is not a game, and boy you better not play

Or the devil sure will take you to Hell"

So seeing I'm with you all tangled up in this bed

I guess I never listened well

Holy Ghost is not my name, no no

Holy Ghost is not my name

Girl I've never been no saint, no no

So I'm just gonna keep it plain

I like the way you're wearing those tight blue jeans

And I see a little devil in your eyes

So let's go back to mine and have a kind of revival

That will put that Holy Ghost out your mind

So as I went from blue-eyed boy to blue-eyed man

I tried the straight and narrow path

I listened to the preacher when the preacher said "love one like she will be your last"

I took the words he said to heart and did as I was told, and I only love one girl at a time

But when the sun comes up time starts all over again

And I go on moving down the line

Holy Ghost is not my name, no no

Holy Ghost is not my name

Girl I've never been no saint, no no

So I'm just gonna keep it plain

I like the way you're wearing those tight blue jeans

And I see a little devil in your eyes

So let's go back to mine and have a kind of revival

That will put that Holy Ghost out your mind
