The Lord Knows I'm Drinkin'
B. Anderson
C
Hello Mrs. Johnson, you self-righteous woman
F
You Sunday school teacher, what brings you out slummin'
C F
Do you reckon the preacher would approve where you are
C G C
Standin' here visitin' with a back-slidin' Christian in a neighborhood bar
Well yes that's my bottle, and yes that's my glass
And I see who you're eye-ballin, but you can kiss my ass
It ain't none of your business, but yes she's with me
And we don't need no sermon, you self-righteous woman, just let us be
CHORUS:
F C
The Lord knows I'm drinkin' and runnin' around
F G
And he don't need your loud mouth informin' the town
F C
The Lord knows I'm sinnin' and sinnin' ain't right
G C
But me and the Good Lord's gonna have us a good talk later on tonight
SOLO: F C F G F C G C
Goodbye Mrs. Johnson, you self-righteous bitty
I don't need your preachin', I don't need your pity
So go back to whatever you hypocrites do
And when I talk to heaven, be nice and I'll put in a good word for you
CHORUS
G F C
Yeah me and the Good Lord's gonna have us a good talk later on tonight
