Well I was born an original sinner. |
|
I was borne from original sin. |
|
And if I had a dollar bill |
|
For all the things I've done |
|
There'd be a mountain of money |
|
Piled up to my chin... |
|
My mother told me good |
|
My mother told me strong. |
|
She said "be true to yourself |
|
And you can't go wrong." |
|
"But there's just one thing |
|
that you must understand." |
|
"You can fool with your brother- |
|
But don't mess with a missionary man." |
|
Don't mess with a missionary man. |
|
Don't mess with a missionary man. |
|
Don't mess with a missionary man. |
|
Well the missionary man |
|
He's got god on his side. |
|
He's got the saints and apostles |
|
Backin' up from behind. |
|
Black eyed looks from those bible books. |
|
He's a man with a mission |
|
Got a serious mind. |
|
There was a woman in the jungle |
|
And a monkey on a tree. |
|
The missionary man he was followin' me. |
|
He said "stop what you're doing." |
|
"Get down upon your knees." |
|
"I've a message for you |
|
that you better believe." |
|
Well I was born an original sinner. |
|
I was borne from original sin. |
|
And if I had a dollar bill |
|
For all the things I've done |
|
There'd be a mountain of money |
|
Don't mess with a missionary man. |
