Sins of My Father

My sons, keep them

Please forgive me

Whoa now

I think this woman went and put a hex on me

Whoa now

Why'd I let her go and put that sex on me?

Whoa now

I probably shouldn't have watched that girl undress for me

Oh, the scent of her perfume in the air

Got it feeling different in here, yeah

She took my breath away

On to some fancy ship

Into another place

Such an expensive trip

But she didn't make me pay for it with my money

Oh, it's the sins of my father

He left a debt to his son

To pay the girl who's a mother

Collector won't let me run, no

But she didn't make me pay for it with my money

I paid for the sins of my father

Oh now

She speakin' in a tongue that soundin' new to me

Oh now

Mama told me what this could do to me

Oh now

Wouldn't fall for something like this usually

No, no, tell me how could I ever prepare

If my papa never was there?

Oh, she took my breath away

On to some fancy ship

And to another place

Such an expensive trip

But she didn't make me pay for it with my money

Oh, it's the sins of my father

He left a debt to his son

To pay the girl who's a mother

Collector won't let me run, no

But she didn't make me pay for it with my money

I paid for the sins of my father

Hurt me, please me, yeah

No, I don't deserve the debt that came with my birth

No, oh, why have I been pretending

This is something that that man came up with

I'm praying I reverse this curse

It's the sins of my father

He left the debt to his son, hey

To pay the girl who's a mother

Collector won't let me run, no, hey

But she didn't make me pay for it with my money

I paid for the sins of my father
