Lyrics for Song: Sinners and Saints
Lyrics for Album: The Cold Hard Truth [Asylum] [1999]
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.
--- Instrumental ---
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.
--- Instrumenrtal ---
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...

Sinners and Saints
George Jones remains one of country music's most enduring voices, celebrated for his emotive delivery and mastery of the honky-tonk tradition. "Sinners and Saints" appears on his 1999 album, The Cold Hard Truth, released during his tenure with Asylum Records. This recording captures the veteran artist's ability to convey deep emotional resonance, a hallmark of his extensive discography spanning decades. While Jones is often associated with his classic hits from the 1960s and 1970s, his later work continued to explore themes of heartbreak and redemption with characteristic precision. The song stands as a testament to his longevity and consistent ability to connect with audiences through sincere, heartfelt performances that define his legacy in the genre. |
