Saints and Sinners Songtext
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
The life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
Whiskey rum and porter just what the doctor ordered
To keep you hale and hearty and to set you fancy free
It makes the spirit jolly and it cures the melancholy
Bereft of cares and worries it′s the barley bree for me
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
Throw out your pills and potions your syrups and your lotions
Your physics and your tonics they will never do the job
And if you have the tension it's best you pay attention
Kick up your heels and sip a glass of nectar from the gods
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
There′s some that never try it dispute it and deny it
They'd never let it pass their lips it's poison so they think
There′s pious men aplenty who′s hearts are cold and empty
They think they'll get to heaven if they shun the devil′s drink
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
There's others with the thinking that there′s goodness in the drinking
It gives a man the courage just to stem the coming tide
If you're running out of patience at your trials and tribulations
A drink or two will do no harm at least you know you tried
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
You drunkards and beginners
The life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
Whiskey rum and porter just what the doctor ordered
To keep you hale and hearty and to set you fancy free
It makes the spirit jolly and it cures the melancholy
Bereft of cares and worries it′s the barley bree for me
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough
To not enjoy it everyday
Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
Throw out your pills and potions your syrups and your lotions
Your physics and your tonics they will never do the job
And if you have the tension it's best you pay attention
Kick up your heels and sip a glass of nectar from the gods
Come all you saints and sinners
You drunkards and beginners
Life is short enough

Embrace your guilty pleasures
Then take them at your leisure
For the road to hell is paved
With good intentions on the way
