All Sins Forgiven

She paints her face with colored make-up
Hides her eyes behind the shine
And thoughts if things were different
Come driftin' through the night

For different men, for different stations
Does any thing to pass the time
And thoughts if things were different
Make that liquor burn feel kind

She finds her solace in a bottle
Her happiness in shame
If all sins forgiven, she'll do it all again

The gin joint is callin'
Thoughts've been on dreams and wine
And thoughts if things were different
Come driftin' though the night

She fumbles through her purse for nickels
A dance to ease her weary mind
And thought if things were different
Make that whiskey burn feel kind

She finds her solace in a bottle
Her happiness in shame
If all sins forgiven, she'll do it all again

She lays her head on her pillow
As she drifts off to sleep
And things if things were different
She prays the Lord her soul he'll keep

She finds her solace in a bottle
Her happiness in shame
If all sins forgiven, she'll do it all again
