Lyrics Ain't It a Sin - Charles Bradley

Ain't It a Sin

I tried
And run!
I tried to be a righteous man
I tried to give love all over the world
But I’m tired of being used!
Owww!
Ugh
Uh-huh!
It’s my turn
To love and be loved
It’s my turn
To get out in the world and let my spirit speak
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
When I start boiling over
My feelings catch a flame
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
I try to find the strength inside
To keep my soul from running wild
My emotions got the best of me
I kick and scream just like a child
I start boiling over
My feelings catch a flame
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
Owwwww!
Ah, ah
Huh!
Ain’t it a sin
When I start boiling over
My feelings catch a flame
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
Owww!
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ain’t it a sin
So don’t do me wrong
And I won’t do you wrong
We gonna do it right
Owwwwwww!
Ain’t it a sin
Ain’t it a sin
Owwww!
