Well he was the assistant preacher And the Sunday school teacher, in the church that I grew up in
E                                                                          B
She was a looker from Atlanta Led the choir, played piano, had a body that was made for sin
 E                                                                                      A
She didn?t care that he was married Cause the torch that she carried was hotter then the fires of hell     E                                       A          B                    E
She had plans to seduce him; if she could she would loosen, a notch in the Bible belt


E
So she called him up at home, when she knew he'd be alone, Said preacher I could use advice,
E                                                                                                         B
I got troubles with a man that I know you'll understand If you could help me it would sure be nice
           E                                                                                          A
They met a few minutes after, in the office of the pastor, and she started telling how she felt
               E                                                 A                                               B            E
What a chance they were takin', when they first started breakin?, the laws of the Bible belt


[Chorus]
           A                                                    E
There's a lot of good people, who are led astray? That believe what the good book said
          A
Well I'll tall ya something brother, when you're dealin' with the devil,
      F#                 B                         E
It's tough to keep a level head, It's hard to imagine How the flames of passion
        A                                             E                                      A
Can burn till your soul will melt, and it'll spread like a cancer But you're gonna have to answer
             B             E
To the lord and the Bible belt

Someone said they went to Vegas; back home it didn't take us long, to hear the news of what they did
E                                                                B
Nobody could believe that he left his wife to grieve, Alone with two preschool kids
E                                                                                      A
I don't know how there doin', But I know that they're screwin' up, A good thing they once had
 E                                               A                                           B               E
They better get their heads together, or they're gonna slap leather, with the lord and the Bible belt


[Chorus]
           A                                                    E

It's tough to keep a level head, It's hard to imagine How the flames of passion
        A                                             E                                      A

To the lord and the Bible belt, they better get their heads together, or they're gonna slap leather
                B              E
With the lord and the Bible belt
