Yonder Stands the Sinner Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
Down by the club on the parking lot cinders
I was to meet him and play his game
[Chorus]
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
[Verse 2]
I saw his face in the attic window
Yelling down through the broken pane
Sinner man, what you got to run for?
Church bells rang when he said that name
[Chorus]
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
[Verse 3]
Well, I was about as scared as I could be
I went and hid behind the nearest tree
I peeked out from behind the branches
Sinner!
Well, you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
Down by the club on the parking lot cinders
I was to meet him and play his game
[Chorus]
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
[Verse 2]
I saw his face in the attic window
Yelling down through the broken pane
Sinner man, what you got to run for?
Church bells rang when he said that name
[Chorus]
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
[Verse 3]
Well, I was about as scared as I could be
I went and hid behind the nearest tree
I peeked out from behind the branches
Sinner!
[Chorus]
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
To get down
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
Yonder stands the sinner
He calls my name without a sound
To get down
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
I guess you heard about the Great Pretender?
I went to see him and he's not the same
