[E]
Well, there was a New York attorney about to take a southern journey into places that he'd never been.
She was a brunette out of Brooklyn, fast-talking and [B] good-looking, but with a body that was made to [E] sin.
And she wanted him for marriage, but the torch that she [A] carried was hotter than the fires of hell.
But [E] he said he [A] didn't need her, so she followed him down deep into [B] the mother of the Bible [E] bed.
She begged and she pleaded, and she told him all she needed was a little tender love and care.
But he was wrapped up in his work and acting like a jerk by [B] pretending that she wasn't there.
[E] But her heart was love-stricken, so she never thought of [A] quitting, giving up no matter how she felt.
She [E] had plans [A] to seduce him if she could, she would loosen [B] a notch in [E] the Bible bed.
[Em] [A] There's a lot of good people who let a [E] straight, believed true love stand.
[A] But I'll tell you something, brother, when you're dealing [F#m] with your feelings, it's tough to keep a level [B] head.
[E] And it's hard to imagine how the flames of [A] passion will burn to your soul and melt.
[E] And it'll spread like a [A] cancer to you, you're gonna have to answer [B] to your [E] heart in the Bible bed.
[A]
[E] Come on!
[A]
[F#] [B] [E]
[A] [E]
[A] [B] [E] Doesn't matter who you are, if you're a peasant or a stork, there's a need for love in every man.
And he found it very soon, underneath the southern [B] moon, when she finally made him understand.
[E] That every man's got his pride, and he'll try to run [A] and hide from emotions that his heart has built.
[E] So he gave her love a [A] chance, when he found [B] romance in the heart of the [E] Bible bed.
[A] There's a lot of good people who let a [E] straight, believed true love stand.
[A] But I'll tell you something, brother, when you're [F#m] dealing with your feelings, it's tough to keep a [B] level head.
[E] And it's hard to imagine how the flames of [A] passion will burn to your soul and melt.
[E] And it'll spread like a [A] cancer to you, you're gonna have to [B] answer to your heart in the [E] Bible bed.
They better get their heads together, [A] or they're gonna slap a liver with [B] their hearts in [E] the Bible bed.
Amen, brother.
