Oh you can read out of your bible You can fall down on your knees Pretty mama, and pray to the lord But it ain't gonna do you no good You're gonna need You're gonna need my help someday Well, if you can't quit your sinnin' Please quit your lowdown ways Well you can run down to the White House You can gaze at the Capitol Dome Pretty mama, you can pound on the President's gate It'll do you no good You're gonna need You're gonna need my help someday Well, if you can't quit your sinnin' Please quit your lowdown ways Well you can run down to the desert Throw yourself on the burnin sand You can raise up your right hand pretty mama But you better understand You're gonna need You're gonna need my help someday Well, if you can't quit your sinnin' Please quit your lowdown ways You can hitch hike on the highways You can stand alone by the side of the road You can try to ??? a ride back home pretty mama But you can't ride in my car You're gonna need You're gonna need my help someday Well, if you can't quit your sinnin' Please quit your lowdown ways Oh you can read out of your bible You can fall down on your knees Pretty mama, and pray to the lord But it ain't gonna do you no good You're gonna need You're gonna need my help someday Well, if you can't quit your sinnin' Please quit your lowdown ways Quit your lowdown ways
