Loretta Lynn Lyrics

"Saint To Sinner" lyrics


You put a halo and wings around me
Now you say that I have gone bad
But while you were busy with business and booze
I lost the wings and the halo I had.

You say I went from a saint to a sinner
But you can't blame me for it all
You were the teacher, I was just a beginner
You don't know how it hurt me to fall.

--- Instrumental ---

You didn't think that your angel could wander
But I'm just like you, flesh and blood
While you had your drinkin' your buddies and business
I guess I had too much time all alone.

You say I went from a saint to a sinner
But you can't blame me for it all
You were the teacher, I was just a beginner
You don't know how it hurt me to fall...
