Lyrics

0:17Father Father Father
0:19Well it's been a long long time how are you doing
0:24How is your son how are his children
0:28I bet they're just like me
0:34You must be tired tired tired
0:36Of hearing prayers like mine no need to answer
0:41Nobody likes knowing that favors
0:44Are all they'll ever be
0:49But there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
0:53And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
0:57If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
1:15Father Father Father
1:16Well you've seen me try and try to make her love me
1:21I'd sell my soul to hear the one thing
1:25She thinks she'll never say
1:31But now it's Sunday Sunday Sunday
1:33And her pretty voice is rising up to ask you
1:38Like I once did like I'm about to
1:42If you could show her the way
1:46'Cause there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
1:50And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
1:54If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
2:03I would never bother you again
2:37Father you of all gods ought to know
2:40How little to expect from people
2:42But I think you might be
2:44Pleasantly surprised to see what this girl
2:47Would bring out of me
2:56There's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
2:59And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
3:04If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
3:13I would never bother you again unless you want me to
3:23Hell we'll just both hang out with you in heaven when we die
Father Father Father
Well it's been a long long time how are you doing
How is your son  how are his children
I bet they're just like me
You must be tired tired tired
Of hearing prayers like mine  no need to answer
Nobody likes knowing that favors
Are all they'll ever be
But there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
Father Father Father
Well you've seen me try and try to make her love me
I'd sell my soul to hear the one thing
She thinks she'll never say
But now it's Sunday Sunday Sunday
And her pretty voice is rising up to ask you
Like I once did  like I'm about to
If you could show her the way
'Cause there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
I would never bother you again
Father you of all gods ought to know
How little to expect from people
But I think you might be
Pleasantly surprised to see what this girl
Would bring out of me
There's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together
I would never bother you again unless you want me to
Hell we'll just both hang out with you in heaven when we die
