G
Hello Mrs. Johnson you self-righteous woman
              C
Sunday School teacher what brings you out slumming
                  G               G7               C
Do you reckon the preacher would approve where you are
              G                            D7
Standing here visiting with a back-sliding Christian
                  G
In a neighborhood bar
 
                                                  
Well yes that's my bottle and yes that's my glass
                     C
And I see you're eye balling this pretty young lass
                      G            G7             C
It ain't none of your business but yes she's with me
                     G                         D7
And we don't need no sermon you self-righteous woman
            G
Just let us be
C G The Lord knows I'm drinking and running around C D7 And He don't need your loud mouth informing the town C G The Lord knows I'm sinning and sinning ain't right D7 But me and the Good Lord's gonna have us a good talk G Later tonight Goodbye Mrs. Johnson you self-righteous biddy C I don't need your preaching and I don't need your pity G G7 C So go back to whatever you hypocrites do G D7 And when I talk to Heaven be nice and I'll put in G A good word for you repeat #3
