When fame and fortune

When fame and fortune hit the downtown hall
when fame and fortune roll into our town
we're gonna jump and then we'll flock to the call
the congregation rolls into our town

the'yve got the women with the biggest tits
they've the women with the finest hips
they've got the women with that crazy touch
they've got the men, the men of love

you can do what's never been done
you can win what's never been won
you can go were no one has gone
when fame and fortune come to turn you on

throw out our earrings and give from the heart
throw out your jewels and give'em your gold
yes up till now we've all been playing strange parts
not only bodies but souls too can be sold
they're gonna take us in and make us all one
absolve our sins and send us up to the sun

the saviour in his shiny cadillac
transparent angels riding on his back
we'll have the law and music all at once
he's gonna break our bonds and make us all dance
the saviour smiles but beckons "not too much"
to his wild women with their crazy touch
when fame and fortune etc.
