To the Lions

I lost my girl on Monday
Looking for some sympathy
I went to church directly
The lord was not there for me
Didn't go to work on Tuesday
Got to drinking around noon
I lost my heart to a mean bartender
She knocked me off my stool
Now the world's spinning 'round too fast, lord
Won't you let me off on the corner?
You know a man could take to sinning
All he needs is a little push in that direction
I lost my job on Friday
Said a lack of discipline
I went to church directly
Peter said he was not in
I hit the bar on Sunday
Looking for some discipline
I sold my soul to the mean bartender
She said I'm born again
Now the world's spinning 'round too fast, lord
Won't you let me off on the corner?
You know a man could take to sinning
All he needs is a little pushing
You time it just right
You could send me to the lions tonight
