Whiskey in the morning scotch the night before my back is full of carpet burns from snow angels on the floor
A woman called me charming when I said I wouldn't bite Then she winked at me and with a grin she told me she just might
(chorus)Pride, envy, gluttony I'm begging fer my soul, and bending on my knee Lust and rage, sloth and greed Those seven deadly sins are the only ones I need to save my soul
A vain old scarecrow all day long Always needing more Always searching for easy street because work is such a chore
I met a man in Arkansas He lived the royal life So I robbed him of his fortune Then I stole his lovely wife
(chorus)
Seven ways in seven days, An awful mess I'm in A checklist straight to hell, And I'd do it all again
Seven rules to disobey, My soul has done wore thin Heaven knows I'm chasing those Seven deadly sins
