Edit By: 216.73.216.251

(jagger/richards)

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
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll 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 youre burning in the flames

And I do believe in miracles
And I want to save my soul
And I know that Im a sinner
Im gonna die here in the cold
I said yes, I said yeah

I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll 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 herods hate
And salome got her wish
To have him served up on a plate
I said yes
I said yeah

I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Youll 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 saw an angel cry

Youll never make a saint of me
Youll never make a saint of me
