lyrics

Are you a Sat’day even’ sinner or a Sunday Morning Saint?
I said you’d better make you mind up,
’fore they close those pearly gates
I said you’d better make your mind up, ’fore they throw you in that cold cold ground

Oh they saw you with your head down prayin’ Behind that wooden pew
But then they caught you drinking whiskey
Here’s the road you’ve got to choose
Are you a Sat’day Evenin’ Sinner or a Sunday Morning Saint just feeling blue?

I said Boatman Boatman row to that side
But now you can’t get to heaven ’gainst that wind and that tide
Just like you can’t get a witness
If you’re prayin’ on that barroom floor

Well now you find yourself a cryin’ In your beer and whiskey too
And now you’re standing on the brink
Of that Ol’ Road You’ve Got to Choose
Are you a Sat’day Evenin’ Sinner or a Sunday Morning Saint just feeling blue?

Wash your hands and sweep the floor
I said Boatman Boatman Boatman Row to that Shore
I’ve paid my fare Said I’ve paid my dues
Now I’ve got to
Walk like a Saint in a Sinner’s shoes

Are you a Sat’day even’ sinner or a Sunday Morning Saint?
I said you’d better make you mind up, ’fore they close those pearly gates
I said you’d better make your mind up, ’fore they throw you in that cold cold ground

"The Wedded Bliss are just plain wonderful, a rose scented brew of beer-tap poetry and narrative country with a side plate of 50s rock melody. Cheerful, melancholy, funny…" - BMA Magazine

The Wedded Bliss is a labour of love for Randall Blair, Matt Nightingale and Lachlan Coventry.

They are a band that that will have you tapping your toes, singing along to their catchy country swing tunes.
