[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Hello Mrs Johnson,
you self righteous woman
Sunday school [C]teacher,
what brings you out slummin'
Do you reckon the [G]preacher would
approve where you [C]are
Standin' here, [G]visitin' with a back-slidin'
Christian [D]Christian in a neighborhood [G]bar

[Verse 2]
[G]
Well, yes, that's my bottle and yes,
that's my glass
And I see [C]you're
eyeballin', this pretty young lass
It ain't none of your [G]business but yes,
she's with [C]me
And we don't need no [G]sermon,
you self-righteous woman [D]woman just let us [G]be

[Verse 3]
[G]
The Lord knows I'm [C]drinkin'
and runnin' [G]around
And He don't need your [C]loud
mouth informin' the [D]town
The Lord knows [C]I'm sinnin'
and sinnin' ain't [G]right
But me and the [D]good Lord's gonna have
us a good talk [G]later tonight

[Interlude 1]
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]Goodbye, Mrs.Johnson,
you self-righteous biddy
I don't need your [C]preachin'
and I don't need your pity
So, go back to whatever,
[G]you hypocrites do[C]
And when I talk to [G]Heaven,
be nice and I'll [D]put in a good word for [G]you

[Verse 5]
[G]
The Lord knows I'm [C]drinkin'
and runnin' [G]around
And He don't need your [C]loud
mouth informin' the [D]town
The Lord knows [C]I'm sinnin'
and sinnin' ain't [G]right
But me and the [D]good Lord's gonna have us a
good talk later to[G]night
