Sinners & Saints - George Jones

Young ones in the jailhouse sleeping it off

Church folks saying that his soul is lost

Man you shoulda seen him, all the faces turned red

Yep, when the preacher stood up and said

The only thing different in sinners and saints

One is forgiven and the other one ain’t.

Sally got in trouble a few years ago

With a married man down in Tupelo

The way folks talked in this little old town

Lord, there ain’t no way she’s ever gonna live it down

The only thing different in sinners and saints

One is forgiven and the other one ain’t.

Nobody’s perfect, we’re just flesh and blood

One foot on the high road, one in the mud

There’s a mighty fine line between right and wrong

Don’t point your finger, don’t matter which side you’re on

The only thing different in sinners and saints

One is forgiven and the other one ain’t.

The only thing different in sinners and saints

One is forgiven and the other one ain’t.

One is forgiven and the other one ain’t…
