Music by Elton JohnLyrics by Bernie TaupinAvailable on the album Too Low For ZeroWell he could almost taste the moneyBut he was sitting in a den of thievesLooking for the great awakeningTrying to find a way to leaveBut that's when he got religionAnd the light went on insideHe said somebody up there likes meNow he's working for the holy guideHe got drunk but he don't rememberThat he'd been drinking in a bar downtownWhen he thought he heard a choir of angelsSinging in the Tiki LoungeAnd that's when he got religionFrom no salesman on TVJust a tap on the shoulder in the parking lotHe still drinks but he does believeReligion, you do the best you canWe all make the same mistakesWe're gonna wind up with the manReligion, oh you do the best you canWe all make the same mistakesWe're gonna wind up with the manShe was silent as he paid herBut the thanks she got was next to noneAnd as her car pulled out of the motelShe felt the presence of someoneAnd that's when she got religionIn the front of a compact FordJust a gentle voice on the stereoNow she's a working girl who loves the lord
