My sons, keep them
Please forgive me
Whoa now I think this woman
Went and put a hex on me
Whoa now why'd I let her go on
And put that sex on me
Whoa now I probably shouldn't have
Watched that girl undress for me
Oo the scent of her perfume in the air
Got it feelin different in here, yea
She took my breath away
Onto some fancy ship
Into another place
Such an expensive trip
But she didn't make me pay
For it with my money
(Oooooowwww)
It's the sins of my father
He left the debt to his son
To pay the girl who's a mother
Collector won't let me run (Nooo)
But she didn't make me pay
For it with my money
I paid for the sins of my father
Whoa now she's speaking in a
Tongue that's sounding new to me
Whoa now momma told me what
This could do to me (Uh)
Whoa now wouldn't fall for
Something like this usually (No, no)
Tell me how could I ever prepare
If my papa never was there (Oooooooo)
She took my breath awaaay
Onto some fancy ship
Into another plaaaaace
Such an expensive trip
But she didn't make me pay
For it with my money
(Oooooowwww)
It's the sins of my father
He left the debt to his son (He left the debt to his son)
To pay the girl who's a mother (Mother)
Collector won't let me run (Nooo)
But she didn't make me pay
For it with my money
I paid for the sins of my father
Faaaaaaaaather (Hurt me, please me yeah)
Faaaaaaaaather
(Nooo, I don't deserve the debt that came with my birth)
Faaaaaaaaather (Oooooo)
(Why have I been sentenced to something
that that man came up with? I pray that I reverse this curse)
It's the sins of my father (Father)
He left the debt to his son (He left his debt to his son)
(Heyyyay)
To pay the girl who's a mother (To pay the girl who's a mother)
Collector won't let me run (Collector won't let me ruuuuun)
(Nooo) (Heyyy)
But she didn't (She didn't) make me pay
For it with my money (Make me pay for it with my money)
I paid for the sins of my father
