I'm a lucky man,
cause I don't have to live forever.
I'm an all-soul man,
in the race to get to heaven.
But I've got a smile on my face,
cause there's blood in my veins.
And life doesn't get any better,
for this happy sinner.
If love's to be the death of me,
then I won't cry.
Lying with you is blasphemy, I'll pay
the price.
Cause my soul's at rest,
with my head on your chest.
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get.
And I hope you'll give in to your happy sinner tonight.
Oh,
like my father said,
son, the best of us are failures.
So
get it through your head,
nobody's gonna come to save us.
And though he made some mistakes,
and we share the same face,
I can't blame him for my misbehavior.
I'm just a happy sinner.
And if love's to be the death of me,
then I won't cry.
And if lying with you is blasphemy,
I'll pay the price.
Cause my soul's at rest,
with my head on your chest.
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get.
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner.
I'm down on my knees,
and the sword I've never cleased,
is over my head.
It's over my head.
And God knows I'm taking liberties,
where
angels won't tread.
Where angels won't tread.
If love's to be the death of me,
then I won't cry.
And if lying with you is blasphemy,
I'll pay the price.
Cause my soul's at rest,
with my head on your chest.
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get.
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight.
Yes,
I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight.
