"Dirty Little Religion" lyrics
"Dirty Little Religion"
I like to think I've earned my reputation
For rushing in where angels fear to tread
I'll take you home to meet the congregation
We'll all get together in my tent
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
I'll make a dirty little convert out of you
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
I'll make a dirty little convert out of you
They treat you like a red-headed stepchild
And try to keep you nailed to the floor
Join us for the countdown to the Rapture
We never turned a sinner from our door
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
I'll make a dirty little convert out of you
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah
Dirty little acolyte
Dirty little one
Learn the fundamentals of desire
Can I get a witness
To my testament?
Can I get an amen from the choir?
I like to think I've earned my reputation
For trying to take the bull by the horns
I'll show you where I get my inspiration
Where we plow and where we plant the corn
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
I'll make a dirty little convert out of you
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'
It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah
Dirty little acolyte
Dirty little one
You'll learn the fundamentals of desire
Can I get a witness
To my testament?
Can I get an amen from the choir?

Mott The Hoople - "All The Way From Memphis" Forgot my six-string razor - hit the sky
Half way to Memphis 'fore I realised

The Smithereens - "Behind The Wall Of Sleep" She had hair like Jeannie Shrimpton back in 1965
She had legs that never ended
I was halfway paralyzed
She was tall and cool and pretty and she dressed as black as coal
If she asked me to I'd murder,...
The Jayhawks - "Blue" Where have all my friends gone
They've all disappeared
Turned around maybe one day
You're all that was there
Stood by unbelievin'
Stood by on my own
Always thought I was someone
Turned out I was...
Jakob Dylan - "Gimme Some Truth" All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
I'm sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics
All I want is...
