There's a Gideon Bible on the table In a downtown Dallas Holliday Inn And if I listen close I can hear my conscious whisper Son don't you know the Lord is lookin' in I woke up with her layin' there beside me On the nightstand her stockings hung with care And Lord I know there's something mighty wrong inside of me Like the bottle and the Bible on the chair Oh Father who art in heaven all praises unto thy name Please forgive room 37 everytime I see your book I feel ashamed
Well tomorrow I'll be headin' home to Houston And I won't repeat the things I haven't heard But on that door I'll leave a mem'ry hangin' Tellin' me and all the world do not disturb Oh Father who art in heaven all praises unto thy name Please forgive room 37 everytime I see your book I feel ashamed There's a Gideon Bible on the table In a downtown Dallas Holliday Inn
