The Rolling Stones Saint Of Me Lyrics

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
Could you put your faith in Jesus
When you're burning in the flames
I said, yeah!!!

And I do believe in miracles
And I want to save my soul
And I know that I'm 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
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
Mmm!!! Mmm!!!

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
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
Mmm!!! Yeah!!! Yeah!!!
I thought I saw an angel cry
Mmm!!!

You'll never make a saint of me
You'll never make a saint of me
never make a saint of me
Mmm!!!
