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

I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me

You'll never make a saint of me
And could you stand the torture

When you're burning in the flames
And I do believe in miracles
And I want to save my soul
And I know that I'm a sinner
