Hello Mrs. Johnson you self-righteous woman

              C
Sunday School teacher what brings you out slumming

                  G               G7               C
Do you reckon the preacher would approve where you are

              G                            D7
Standing here visiting with a back-sliding Christian

                  G
In a neighborhood bar

 
G                                                   
Well yes that's my bottle and yes that's my glass

                     C
And I see you're eye balling this pretty young lass

                      G            G7             C
It ain't none of your business but yes she's with me

                     G                         D7
And we don't need no sermon you self-righteous woman

            G
Just let us be

 
                   C                    G
The Lord knows I'm drinking and running around 

                       C                        D7
And He don't need your loud mouth informing the town

                   C                          G
The Lord knows I'm sinning  and sinning ain't right
 
               D7
But me and the Good Lord's gonna have us a good talk

        G
Later tonight

Goodbye Mrs. Johnson you self-righteous biddy

                  C
I don't need your preaching and I don't need your pity

                  G        G7         C
So go back to whatever you hypocrites do

                   G                       D7
And when I talk to Heaven be nice and I'll put in 
                G
D7
A good word for you

 
                   C                    G
The Lord knows I'm drinking and running around 

                       C                        D7
And He don't need your loud mouth informing the town

                   C                          G
The Lord knows I'm sinning  and sinning ain't right
 
               D7
But me and the Good Lord's gonna have us a good talk

        G
Later tonight
