Temple - Parson James

Oh, lordy, I wish it was just some day

But it’s another Sunday

Oh, lordy, the people here, they all say

That I’m making a mistake

Oh, lordy, they’re whispering my name now

Putting it to flames now

Oh, lordy, what is it that I’ve done to become the bad one?

I’ve been so shaken, grace ain’t been amazing

Tell me what’s a man to do?

I done heard your message

I ain’t got no blessings

Fire starting on the roof

And it’s about time to say

Hold up, why is this devil on my shoulder?

Hell must’ve got a little colder

But, hell, I got bolder

Na na na, hey now

Been too quiet, I’mma get loud

You want me in the temple with my head down

But I’m up now

Singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey x2

Singing like

Oh, lordy, it’s like I’ve done some damage

They think I went and planned this

Ooh, lordy, why should I seek redemption?

Why do I feel this tension?

Tell me

I’ve been so shaken, grace ain’t been amazing

Tell me what’s a man to do?

(Tell me what’s a man to do?)

I done heard your message

I ain’t got no blessings

Fire starting on the roof

And it’s about time to say

Hold up, why is this devil on my shoulder?

Hell must’ve got a little colder

But, hell, I got bolder

Na na na, hey now

Been too quiet, I’mma get loud

You want me in the temple with my head down

But I’m up now

Singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey x2

Singing like
