Hello Mrs. Johnson you 
self-righteous woman
              C
Sunday School teacher what brings 
you out slumming
                  G             
Do you reckon the preacher would 
  G7               C
approve where you are
              G              
Standing here visiting with a 
              D7
back-sliding Christian
                  G
In a neighborhood bar


Well yes that's my bottle and yes 
that's my glass
                     C
And I see you're eye balling this 
pretty young lass
                      G            
It ain't none of your business but 
G7             C
yes she's with me
                     G         
And we don't need no sermon you 
                D7
self-righteous woman

Just let us be

                   C           
The Lord knows I'm drinking and 
         G
running around
                       C         
And He don't need your loud mouth 
               D7
informing the town
                   C           
The Lord knows I'm sinning  and 
               G
sinning ain't right
               D7
But me and the Good Lord's gonna 
have us a good talk
        G
Later tonight


Goodbye Mrs. Johnson you 
self-righteous biddy
                  C
I don't need your preaching and I 
don't need your pity
                  G       
So go back to whatever you 
 G7         C
hypocrites do
                   G             
And when I talk to Heaven be nice 
          D7
and I'll put in
                G
A good word for you

                   C           
The Lord knows I'm drinking and 
         G
running around
                       C         
And He don't need your loud mouth 
               D7
informing the town
                   C           
The Lord knows I'm sinning  and 
               G
sinning ain't right
               D7
But me and the Good Lord's gonna 
have us a good talk
        G
Later tonight
