Saved lyrics
Songwriters: Leiber, Jerry; Stoller, Mike;

I used to smoke, I used to drink
I used to smoke, drink, and dance the hoochie-coo
I used to smoke and drink

Smoke and drink and dance the hoochie-coo, oh yeah
But now I m standin on this corner
Prayin for me and you
That s why I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

People, let me tell you bout a kingdom come
You know, I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

I can preach, until you re deaf and dumb
I m in that soul savin army
Beatin on that big bass drum, oh yeah

I used to cuss, I used to fuss
I used to cuss, fuss and boogie all night long
I used to cuss and fuss
Cuss and fuss and boogie all night long

But now, I m standin on this corner
I know, right from wrong
That s why I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

People, let me tell you bout a kingdom come
You know, I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

I can preach, until you re deaf and dumb
I m in that soul savin army
Beatin on that big bass drum, oh yeah

I used to lie, lie
I used to cheat, cheat
I used to lie, lie, cheat, cheat and step on people s feet
I used to lie and cheat
Lie and cheat and step on people s feet, oh yeah

But now I m steppin on the glory
Salvation is my beat, oh yeah
Because I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

People, let me tell you about a kingdom come
You know, I m saved, saved
Oh, saved, saved

I can preach until you re deaf and dumb
I m in that soul savin army
Beatin on that big bass drum, oh yeah

That s why I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved
I m saved, saved

Saved
Saved
Saved
