They met a few minutes after in the office of the pastor
So, she called him up at home when she knew he'd be alone
Alone with two pre-school kids
She was looker from Atlanta, led the choir, played piano
That believe what the good book said
Said, "Preacher I could use advice
And it's hard to imagine how the flames of passion
She didn't care that he was married, 'cause the torch that she carried
To hear the news of what they did
Well, I'll tell you somethin' brother when you're dealin' with the devil
And she started telling how she felt
She had plans to seduce him, if she could, she could loosen
They better get their heads together or they're gonna slap leather
To the Lord and the Bible Belt
To the Lord and the Bible Belt
And it'll spread like a cancer but you're gonna have to answer
There's a lot of good people who are led astray
I got troubles with a man that I know you'll understand
The laws of the Bible Belt
It's tough to keep a level ahead
A good thing they once had
Nobody could believe that he left his wife to grieve
They better get their heads together or they're gonna slap leather
If you could help me it would sure be nice"
Was hotter than the fires of Hell
That believe what the good book said
What a chance they were takin' when they first started breakin'
A notch in the Bible Belt
It's tough to keep a level ahead
And it'll spread like a cancer but you're gonna have to answer
Can burn you till your soul will melt
Had a body that was made for sin
I don't know how they're doin' but I know that they're screwin' up
Can burn you till your soul will melt
Someone said they went to Vegas, back home it didn't take us long
With the Lord and the Bible belt
Well, I'll tell you somethin' brother when you're dealin' with the devil
And it's hard to imagine how the flames of passion
There's a lot of good people who are led astray
