Conscience Keep an Eye on Me

Tonight he's liable to work late
And I just can't stay home
A few drinks with an old friend
Somehow don't seem so wrong
But a drink or two, a friendly kiss
Just whets my appetite

Oh conscience, keep an eye on me tonight

I can't be true to someone
Who thinks the world of me
And half the girl he thinks I am
Is all I'd like to be
But when temptations beckon
I can't tell wrong from right

Oh conscience, keep an eye on me tonight

It's hard to face the man I love
With a heart so full of shame
If and when I lose him
Well I'll know who's to blame
I don't know why I'm like this
It's something I must fight

Oh conscience, keep an eye on me tonight

I can't be true to someone
Who thinks the world of me
And half the girl he thinks I am
Is all I'd like to be
But when temptations beckon
I can't tell wrong from right

Oh conscience, keep an eye on me tonight
