Lou Christie Back To The Days Of The Romans Lyrics

Let me save thee, save thee from the den of iniquity
Let me save thee, we're repeating Roman history

On the streets where kicks are our beat
It's a tortured way of livin'

It's not a new bag, letting your conscience sag
The Romans did it

But I'll give you moon love, old fashioned moon love
Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me

CHORUS:
Back to the days of the Romans, baby
That's where we're goin' (that's where we're goin')
That's where we're goin'
Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah

Let me save thee from walkin' the path of least resistance
Let me save thee, baby don't laugh at the devil's
existence

Things were fine, they were havin' some time
When Caesar lost his handle
A free-for-all, they were havin' a ball
Wine, women & scandal
But I'll give you moon love, old fashioned moon love
Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me

(chorus)

Moonlight, old-fashioned moon love
Moonlight, old-fashioned moon love

(chorus x2)

(repeat & fade):
Sing hallelujah
