Lyrics:

[Intro]
I try
(Hey Rail?) - Crowd chimes in with acknowledgement -
I try to be a righteous man
I try to give love all over the world
But I'm tired of being used!
Owww
Ah Aha
Its my turn to love and be loved
Its my turn to get out in the world and let my spirit speak

[Verse 1}​
I try to be a righteous man
Talk to the Lord most every day
Sometimes this world can do me wrong
I keep to the path won't go astray

[Chorus]
When I start boiling over my feelings catch a flame
You might be a man, stay a man, but you won't be the same
If you ain't gonna do me right
I might just do you in
Ain't it a sin
Ain't it a sin

[Verse 2]
I try to find a certain style
To keep my soul from runnin' wild
My emotion got the best of me
I kick and scream just like a child

[Chorus]
I start boiling over my feelings catch a flame
You might be a man, stay a man, but you won't be the same
If you ain't gonna do me right
I might just do you in
Ain't it a sin
Ain't it a sin

[Musical Interlude]

Ain't it a sin

[Musical Interlude]

[Chorus]
When I start boiling over my feelings catch a flame
You might be a man, stay a man, but you won't be the same
If you ain't gonna do me right
I might just do you in
Ain't it a sin
Ain't it a sin

[Outro]
Owwww
Aaaahhaahhh
Ain't it a sin
So don't do me wrong
And I won't do you wrong
We gonna do it right
Owwaaaaaahhhhh
Ain't it a sin
C'mon
C'monnnnn onnnn
