Lyrics Dolly Parton – God Won’t Get You

Sometimes in my sleep I hold you close against my skin
Wakin’ up I wish that I could sleep and dream again
‘Cause only in my dreams can I know how it might have been
But cheaters never win, Their Heartaches never end

But sometimes I get crazy as lovers often do
Trying to please him and wondering if she’s pleasin’ you
Though they have ever right to any part of us they choose
I still live just for you and our secret rendezvous

Torn between two lovers on the jukebox
I’m thinkin’ how I could have wrote that song
Wonderin’ if God loves us when we’re cheatin’
Oh, but why he lets us feel things if it’s wrong
And I guess I should be gingin’ «Rock of Ages»
«Amazing Grace» and some of those good songs
But my cheatin’ heart will tell on me tomorrow
If you think that God won’t get you, well you’re wrong

Thou shalt not commit, it’s written in the ten
The spirit’s always willin’, but the flesh is weak again
And you’re as close to heaven as I might ever fly
And angel in disguise
A wrong that feels so right

Torn between two lovers just keeps playing
I don’t want to be right if lovin’ you is wrong
I’m wonderin’ if God loves us when we’re cheatin’
Oh, but why we have to feel things if it’s so wrong
I guess I should be singin’ «Rock of Ages»
«Amazing Grace» and some of those good songs
But my cheatin’ heart will tell on me tomorrow
If you think that God won’t get you, well you’re wrong

My cheatin’ heart will tell on me tomorrow
