Religion - Elton John

Well he could almost taste the money  But he was sitting in a den of thieves

Looking for the great awakening   Trying to find a way to leave

But that's got when he got religion  And the light went on inside

He said somebody up there likes me  Now he's working for the holy guide

He got drunk but he don't remember  That he'd been drinking in a bar downtown

When he thought he heard a choir of agnels Singing in the Tiki Lounge

And that's when he got religion from no salesman on TV

Just a tap on the shoulder in the parking lot  He still drinks but he does believe

 

Religion

Well you do the best you can  Cause we all make the same mistakes

We're gonna wind up with the man

 

Religion

Oh you do the best you can  We all make the same mistakes

We're gonna wind up with the man

She was silent as he paid her  But the thanks she got was next to none

And as her car pulled out of the motel  She felt the presence of someone

And that's when she got religion  in the front of a compact Ford

Just a gentl voice on the stereo  now she's a workin' girl  who loved the Lord
