One night of sin
Is what I'm now payin' for
The things I did and I saw
Would make the earth stand still
Don't call my name
It makes me feel so ashamed
I've lost my sweet helping hand
I've got myself to blame
Always lived a very quiet life
I ain't never done no wrong
Now, I know that life without you
Been too lonely, too long
One night of sin
Is what I'm now payin' for
The things I did and I saw
Would make the earth stand still
(instrumental & sax)
Always lived a very quiet life
I ain't never done no wrong
Now, I know that life without you
Been too lonely, too long
Don't call my name
It makes me feel so ashamed
I've lost my sweet helping hand
I've got myself to blame.
