The Ways Of Sin Songtext

von Rick Vito

Well people used to warn me about the hand of fateAll too late, all too lateThe scene was set and the page had been turnedI was gonna learn by being burnedSo when I hooked up with the hoodlum gameMy future changed, rearrangedWhen the town found out and the truth was toldEven momma wouldn't claim me at the gallows poleShe said...(Chorus)I bet you didn't now that the ways is sin They would do you in, they would do you inI bet you didn't now that the ways is sin They would do you in, they would do you in(2X and 3X also)I bet you didn't think the things you doWould turn on you, would turn on youI bet you didn't think that the ways of sinThey would do you in, they would do you inI was the one who had to get aheadAlive or dead, alive or deadThey took me back by the railroad trackTo the cold jail cell, living hellI tried to be the one with the famous nameAll in vein, all in veinI swear I had to do what they told me toBut they hung me down at the edge of townThey said...(Repeat Chorus)I was the one the town talked aboutWhose luck ran out, whose luck ran outAnd in the final chapter at the big showdownNo one cared to look so they closed my bookThey said...(Repeat Chorus)
