There's a girl in Shelbyville
Gave her life to Jesus
First Antioch Baptist Church, where her dad preaches
She's pretty as her mama; she's only 23
And she could be an angel, Lord, cause she's bringing out the devil in me
Lord, forgive me for what I'm thinking
Cause it's Saturday night and I'm high and I've been drinking
But come tomorrow morning across the aisle
I look over and see her smile
Bow my head and the choir sings
Lord, forgive me; she's bringing out the devil in me
Sundress on a willow tree
Smooth on the water
I know the Lord's been good to me when I look at the preacher's daughter
But she's my Delilah; she brings me to my knees
And she could be an angel, cause she's bringing out the devil in me
Lord, forgive me for what I'm thinking
Saturday night and I'm high and I've been drinking
But come tomorrow morning across the aisle
I look over and see her smile
Bow my head and the choir sings
Lord, forgive me; she's bringing out the devil in me
Lord, forgive me for what I'm thinking
Saturday night and I'm high and I've been drinking
But come tomorrow morning across the aisle
I look over and see her smile
Bow my head and the choir sings
Lord, forgive me; she's bringing out the devil in me
Lord, forgive me; she's bringing out the devil in me
