sunday morning

sunday morning at the little church down the street

i was sitting in the congregation i was listenin' to the preacher preach

yeah

we had a good time

love all over the place

we was talking about the blood of jesus

singing amazing grace

gave a little money

that's all i could afford

and then me and my brothers and sisters got on down to praisin' the lord

yeah

we had a good time

thinkin' about the promised land

when i got home sunday morning

i was feeling like a brand-new man

but monday morning

my car wouldn't start

i didn't get to work till ten

the bossman said if you want to work here

don't you ever let it happen again

there was people grumblin' and carrying on

i had to listing to all of that fuss

i'll tell you brother

it's just about enough to make a man want cuss

went over in the corner

where there warn't nobody but me

i said thank you jesus

because i'm not the man i used to be

i gonna make it

gonna make it through the week 'cause i know

come sunday morning

i'll be sitting on the very front row

saturday evening

an old friend came by and said come on

let's go downtown

we'll find us a bar and we'll pick up some girls and do a little folling around

i said hold on buddy

i'm sure glad you came 'cause i got something i want you to see

why don't you sit down here and let me tell you about what the lord has done for me

i said jesus love you and he died got for your sins

and if you let me

i'll be glad to lead you straight to him

we talked for a little while and i got down on my knees

now sunday morning

every sunday morning

every sunday morning he's sittin' right here with me

on the very front row
