Letra de Forgive me father

Forgive me father for I´ve sinned
It´s been 3 whole days since my last glass of gin
The ones that I old dear say it´s getting to my head
If I can´t have me liquor lord I might as well be dead
Forgive me father for I fear I´ve gone all wrong
I slept beside many a dame and never once returned
I´ve raised my hands in anger and put down my fellow man
And I fear no penance I could receive could save me from the damned

Can you help me father for I´m falling
My heart is weary and I´m beginning to feel faint
He smiled and he looked into my eyes
And he said son, you ain´t nothing but a tortured saint

Forgive me father for I know not what I do
´Ya see I left home when I was just fifteen
Never had the guidance of a loving father
Just bar flies and whores, no brother to bother
