Southern Baptist Heartbreak

Too much makeup for a Sunday



Virginia Wilson, you oughta be ashamed



Somewhere in the second verse of, 'Have Thine Own Way'



She left an empty pew, she said, "I think that's what I'll do"



And now she's singing hallelujah on a Saturday night



She's stepping out looking for the other life



Press-on nails and a run in her hose



Goin' downtown, down she goes



And she don't care if it's a big mistake



She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace



She's running from that Southern Baptist Heartbreak



"She must be easy," that's what they say



Her skirt's too short for the PTA



But good girls don't smoke and when they kneel, they pray



But she had enough of that come on, back-stabbing, back-sliding love



Now she's singing hallelujah on a Saturday night



She's stepping out looking for the other life



Press-on nails and a run in her hose



Goin' downtown, down she goes



And she don't care if it's a big mistake



She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace



She's running from that Southern Baptist Heartbreak



Sweet Virginia, where have you gone?



Everybody misses you



'Cause there's no one left to catch the stones



Singing hallelujah on a Saturday night



Stepping out, looking for the other life



Press-on nails and a run in her hose



Goin downtown, down she goes



She don't care if it's a big mistake



She needs a whole lot more than Amazing Grace



She's running from that Southern Baptist



Passin' on that peace that passeth



And livin' out a Southern Baptist Heartbreak
