about

Well, We all get tempted! But one line in this song started me writing this tune. A friend of mine Pat Flanagan told me about a trip to a florida baptist church. The preacher was talking about temptation and then turned to one of his deacons and said " And deacon jones here is hiding a worm in his pocket!" That got me started

lyrics

Well, I met a little girl down in Tennessee,
Bout the prettiest little girl that I ever did see
Hair of gold and eyes so blue
man those eyes could flash at you!
She winked at me and I took my cue
We sat down had a laugh or too
The night was over and she went home
I started thinkin when she's gone
Man that girl could make a sinner out of me!

I'm singin in a club in Montreal
pretty little thing lookin cute and all
She had brown hair and a perfect smile.
"This gig is good, I'll stay for awhile"
We sat down and started to talk
She said "Hon you wanna go for a walk"
I thought to my self that I gotta be true.
Then she flicked her hips what could I do?

That girl done made a sinner out of me

She was so fine, she was good
She got me thinkin "If only I could"
Forbidden fruit should be left on the vine
The worm in my pocket, I just keep on hidin it!

It's Sunday morning and I'm feelin bad
I got to Church to talk to The Man
Preacher turns and points at me
"Listen here son you gotta only believe!
It's been this way since time began. Ever since God made woman and man. She got the fruit, and he got the need. Guess what Adam said to Eve?
Girl you gone and made a sinner out of Me!"

She was so fine....
