I Could've Had Religion

I could've had religion, I could religion

But my little girl wouldn't let me pray

I swear to the world she drove my spirit away

She drove my spirit away, she drove my spirit away



I could've had religion, I could've had religion

But my little girl wouldn''t let me pray

I tell the truth, she drove my spirit away

She drove my spirit away



I could've been, I could've been a preacher,

But I changed my mind the other nigh

The woman I have now, she would not treat me right

She would not treat me right



I've been a bad man, as bad can be

Gonna pray to the Lord above to send his blessing on me

I want some mercy, you got set my soul free

Set my soul free, Please..



I could've had, I could've had religion

But my little girl wouldn't let me pray.

Well, demon woman, you sent the devil my way,

You sent the devil my way.



Oh Lord above please send my fire,

Send your mercy right down to me.

That woman set the devil on me,

She set the devil on me,

She set the devil one me,

She set the devil on me.
