 I was driving home early Sunday morning

through Bakersfield

Listening to gospel music 
                     
SIb
on the colored radio station
                     
DO
And the preacher said,

you know you always have the Lord by your side

 I had an arrangement to meet a girl, 
                       
FA
and I was kind of late

And I thought by the time 
                     
I got there she'd be off
         
SIb
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver 
          
DO     
FA
she could find

Much to my surprise, 
              
SIb 
there she was sittin' in the corner

Ten dollars to the church 
                       
SIb
of the Sacred Bleeding Heart Of Jesus
