Bent out of shape

Could use some savin', I'd say

Been falling from grace

And I need some good in my life.

I've been carried away

Caught in these devilish ways

And there's only two things

That could help me this time.

The lord and a lady

Just a bible and my baby

Nothing more, nothing less

They'd fix this mess

That's been driving me crazy.

God and a girl

They'd be the king and queen

In my whole world

Only thing I can afford

To save me

Is the lord and a lady.

Trapped in these walls

Looking for a wake-up call

And I just need the man above and a woman I love

To catch me when I fall.

Lord and a lady

Just a bible and my baby

Nothing more, nothing less

They'd fix this mess

That's been driving me crazy.

God and a girl

They'd be the king and queen

In my whole world

Only thing I can afford

To save me

Only thing I can afford

To save me

Is the lord and a lady

Lord and a lady.
