Saint Paul the Persecutor
Was a cruel and sinful man
Jesus hit him with a blinding light
And then his life began
I said Yeah
I said Yeah
Augustin knew temptation
He loved women, wine and song
And all the special pleasures
of doing something wrong
I said Yeah
I said Yeah
I said Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
And could you stand the torture
And could you stand the pain
And could you put your faith in Jesus
When you are burning in the flames
I said yes
I do believe in miracles
And I want to save my soul
And I know that I am a sinner
I'm gonna die here in the cold
I said Yeah
I said Yeah
I said Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
I thought I heard an angel cry
I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye
John The Baptist was a martyr
But he stirred up Herod's hate
And Salome got her wish
To have him served up on a plate
I said Yeah
I said Yeah
I said Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
I thought I heard an angel cry
I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye
I thought I heard an angel cry
You'll never make a saint of me
You'll never make a saint of me
