Saved

Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller

I used to smoke
I used to drink
I used to smoke, drink and dance the hootchie-koo
I used to smoke and drink
Smoke and drink and dance the hootchie-koo
It's true
Now I'm standing on this corner
Praying for me and you

That's why I'm saved
I am saved
People, let me tell you about kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I'm gonna preach it until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in the soul-saving army
Beating on the big bass drum

I used to cuss
I used to fuss
I used to cuss, and fuss, and boogie all night long
I used to cuss and fuss
Cuss and fuss and boogie all night long
But now I'm standing on this corner
I know right from wrong

Because I'm saved
I am saved
People, let me tell you about kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I'm gonna preach it until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in that soul-saving army
Beating on the big bass drum

I used to lie
I used to cheat
I used to lie, cheat and step on people's feet
I used to lie and cheat
Lie and cheat and step on people's feet
But now I'm steppin' on the glory
Salvation is my beat

Because I'm saved
Ooh, I'm saved
People, let me tell you about kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I'm gonna preach it until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in that soul-saving army
Beating on a big bass drum, oh

Because I'm saved
Ooh, I'm saved
I am saved, I am saved, I am saved
Saved, saved, saved
You know I'm saved, oh saved
Mm hmm, mm hmm, mm hmm, mm hmm
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm saved, I'm saved
Ooh, ooh, I'm saved, ooh, ooh
