Ted Jensen - Pa**ing the Hat lyrics

Look up from the hymnal Look 'round at the faces Of families closing their eyes We're taking Communion And pa**ing the offering hat Around at the same time I reached for the hat And take all the cash And slide it into my ragged coat sleeve And leave in its place A note to explain All of the reasons that stealing has Led me to leave If there was a worthy cause for to give to May I be so bold as to say The givers not knowing where their money's going Is as sinful as throwing away Stained gla**es shine on my red wine And the sweat of my brow drips to my shaking knees A small sacrifice to benefit one man's journey away from America's seas Sweet sweet sigh of relief Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea (x3) Nobody here knows my name Call it right or wrong I bought my ticket just the same
