The Lord Know I'm Drinking (1972)

Hello Mrs. Johnson, you self-righteous woman

Sunday school teacher, what brings you out slumming?

Do you reckon the preacher would approve where you are?

Standing here visiting with a back sliding Christian in a neighborhood bar


Well yes that’s my bottle, and yes that’s my glass

And I see you eyeballing, this pretty young lass

It ain’t none of your business but yes she’s with me

And we don’t need no sermon you self righteous woman just let us be


The lord knows I’m drinking, and running around

And he don’t need your loud mouth informing the town


The lord knows I’m sinning, and sinning ain’t right

But me and the good lord’s gonna have us a good talk later tonight


Goodbye Mrs. Johnson, you self-righteous bitty

I don’t need your preaching and I don’t need your pity

So go back to whatever, you hypocrites do

And when I talk to heaven, be nice and I’ll put in a good word for you


The lord knows I’m drinking, and running around

And he don’t need your loud mouth informing the town

The lord knows I’m sinning, and sinning ain’t right

But me and the good lord’s gonna have us a good talk later tonight
