Wicked Ways

Lyrics for Wicked Ways

I tried hard to mend my wicked ways I acted like a lunatic for years Lord knows, I try to be good I'd keep my promises, if only I could You count your blessings that I can't rely on you And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried Clutch your pictures of the Pope Pray to God for love and hope Bring the Virgin home for luck Bolt the door to keep it shut I've done things I never thought I'd do Sure, it helps to lose myself in you A little time, I'll be all right Come on, sugar, let's go out tonight Forgive your trespasses and all that we've been through Oh, I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried Clutch your pictures of the Pope Pray to God for love and hope Bring the Virgin home for luck Bolt the door to keep it shut That sinking feeling When you are leaving All I believe in Walks out the door I tried hard to mend my wicked ways The damage done, there's nothing left to save Oh, I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried And I tried Clutch your pictures of the Pope (Just like I told you) Pray to God for love and hope (Just like I warned you) Bring the Virgin home for luck (Just like I told you) Bolt the door to keep it shut (Just like I warned you)
