• Seven Deadly Sins

Some say that kissin's a sin
But tell me how can that be true
For kissing has been in this world
Since the very first day there was two
Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prisons would be full of folk who had a kiss or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none

Some say that gamblin's a sin
But I'll bet you fifteen to one
That gambling has been in this world
Since horses and greyhounds could run
Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prisons would be full of folk who had a bet or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none

Some say that swearin's a sin
But where is the man that can tell
For swearing has been in this world
Since the Devil was told go to hell
Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prisons would be full of folk who had a curse or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none

Some say that smokin's a sin
And a pipe now and then is enough
But smoking has been in this world
Since Adam taught Eve how to puff
Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prisons would be full of folk who had a smoke or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none

Some say that drinkin's a sin
But a gargle is fine now and then
For drinking has been in this world
For ever and ever, Amen
Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue
And the prisons would be full of folk who had a drink or two
And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run
And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none
