Seven Deadly Sins

Some say that kissin's a sin But tell me how can that be true For kissing has been in this world Since the very first day there was two Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue And the prisons would be full of folk who had a kiss or two And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none Some say that gamblin's a sin But I'll bet you fifteen to one That gambling has been in this world Since horses and greyhounds could run Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue And the prisons would be full of folk who had a bet or two And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none Some say that swearin's a sin But where is the man that can tell For swearing has been in this world Since the Devil was told go to hell Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue And the prisons would be full of folk who had a curse or two And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none Some say that smokin's a sin And a pipe now and then is enough But smoking has been in this world Since Adam taught Eve how to puff Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue And the prisons would be full of folk who had a smoke or two And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none Some say that drinkin's a sin But a gargle is fine now and then For drinking has been in this world For ever and ever, Amen Now if it wasn't legal then the lawyers they would sue And the prisons would be full of folk who had a drink or two And if they didn't like it then away the girls would run And if it wasn't plenty then the poor folk would get none
