The Glimmer Twins - Saint of Me lyrics

[Verse 1] Saint Paul the persecutor Was a cruel and sinful man Jesus hit him with a blinding light And then his life began I said yeah[x2] Augustine knew temptation He loved women, wine and song And all the special pleasures Of doing something wrong [Chorus] I said yeah[x3] Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me [Verse 2] And could you stand the torture And could you stand the pain Could you put your faith in Jesus When you're burning in the flames And I do believe in miracles And I want to save my soul And I know that I'm a sinner I'm going to die here in the cold [Chorus][x2] I thought I heard an angel cry I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye John the Baptist was a martyr But he stirred up Herod's hate And Salome got her wish To have him served up on a plate [Chorus][x2] [Verse 3] I thought I heard an angel cry I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye I thought I saw an angel cry [Outro][x2] You'll never make a saint of me
