Текст песни I Ain't Gonna Sin No More - Ethel Waters

Good people, good people
Members of the congregation
Old man river′s waiting for me

Good people, good people
Gonna get me some salvation
Gonna wash my sins away
Hallelujah, help me say

Ain't gonna sin no more
Ain′t gonna sin no more
I just drink my gin,
'Cause that's what keep me thin
But ah, ain′t gonna sin no more
Ain′t gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more
I roll my eyes,
For exercise
But ah, ain′t gonna sin no more

Gonna throw one pair
Of loaded dice
In the river right today
Gonna keep one pair
Of loaded dice
To pay my rent
And keep the wolf away

But ah, ain't gonna sin no more
Ain′t gonna sin no more
I just kick that old gong
To get along
But ah, ain't gonna sin no more

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

S′in' Louis papa
Go your way
Ah got no love for you today
But leave your address just in case
I feel that urge to drop by your place

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Memphis daddy
S'in′ Louis too
Ain′t nothing I can do for you
'Cause that gal of yours, boys
She′s all right
But you can call me up some rainy night

But ah, ain't gonna sin no more
Ain′t gonna sin no more
You hear me talking to you,
Stop tempting me, you ol' devil
Keep behind me
′Cause I ain't gonna sin no more

Gonna cut my number,
Right in half
Only play six a day
'Cause that, just in case,
If I should hit
It′ll keep that big bad wolf away

But ah, ain′t gonna sin no more
Ain't gonna sin no more

I′ll just have my fun,
Like anyone
But ah, Ain't gonna sin no more.
