Lyrics for Dirty Little Religion

Warren Zevon, Zevon Music BMI I like to think I've earned my reputation For rushing in where angels fear to tread I'll take you home to meet the congregation We'll all get together in my tent I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' I'll make a dirty little convert out of you I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' I'll make a dirty little convert out of you They treat you like a red-headed stepchild And try to keep you nailed to the floor Join us for the countdown to the Rapture We never turned a sinner from our door I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' I'll make a dirty little convert out of you I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah Dirty little acolyte Dirty little one Learn the fundamentals of desire Can I get a witness To my testament? Can I get an amen from the choir? I like to think I've earned my reputation For trying to take the bull by the horns I'll show you where I get my inspiration Where we plow and where we plant the corn I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' I'll make a dirty little convert out of you I make a dirty little religion out of lovin' It's a dirty little religion, hallelujah Dirty little acolyte Dirty little one You'll learn the fundamentals of desire Can I get a witness To my testament? Can I get an amen from the choir?
