GOSPEL ALIBIS (Amy Ladd and Friends)

VERSE 1: YOU COULDN'T GET YOUR HAIR DONE
AND YOU COULDN'T FIND YOUR HAT
YOUR GOOD SKIRT WAS TURNED INTO
A DAYBED FOR THE CAT
YOU WERE AT THE GARDEN GATE
WHILE WAITING ON YOUR RIDE
IT GOT HOT AND IT GOT LATE
AND YOU WENT BACK INSIDE

CHORUS: GOSPEL ALIBIS
WHY WEREN'T YOU IN CHURCH
ALIBIS ARE LITTLE LIES
AND TELLING THEM IS WORSE
GOSPEL ALIBIS
WAIT TIL JUDGEMENT DAY
SAINT PETER WON'T TAKE ABILIS
THERE AT THE PEARLY GATES

VERSE 2: UNCLE JOE LOST ALL HIS CORN
HE BLAMED IT ON RACCOONS
HE CAN'T MAKE IT IN TO CHURCH
WHILE HE IS MAKIN' MOON
THAT TIME WHEN HE SLID OFF THE ROAD
HE SAID IT WAS SOME ICE
THE ROAD WAS FREEZING OVER
IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3: SATURDAY PAYS OVERTIME
TO PUT INTO THE PLATE
YOU SAY IT WAS A SATURDAY
AND YOU WERE WORKING LATE
HERE IT IS ON MONDAY
AND YOU SING THE SAME OLD TUNE
YOU WORKED ALL NIGHT ON SATURDAY
TIL SUNDAY AFTERNOON

REPEAT CHORUS
