Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine 
meltin' in a pot of thieves 
wild card up my sleeve 
thick heart of stone  
my sins my own 
they belong to me, me 
people say "beware!" 
but I don't care
the words are just  
 rules and regulations to me, me 

  I-I walk in a room, you know I look so proud 
I'm movin' in this here atmosphere, well, anything's 
allowed 
  and I go to this here party and I just get bored 
  until I look out the window, see a sweet young thing 
 humpin' on the parking meter, leanin' on the parking 
meter 
  oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine 
 and I got this crazy feeling and then I'm gonna ah-ah 
make her mine 
  ooh I'll put my spell on her 

here she comes 
walkin' down the street 
here she comes 
comin' through my door 
here she comes 
  crawlin' up my stair 
here she comes 
waltzin' through the hall 
 in a pretty red dress 
 and oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine 
  and I got this crazy feeling that I'm gonna ah-ah make 
her mine 

 and then I hear this knockin' on my door 
 hear this knockin' on my door 
  and I look up into the big tower clock 
 and say, "oh my God here's midnight!" 
 and my baby is walkin' through the door 
 leanin' on my couch she whispers to me and I take the big 
plunge 
 and oh, she was so good and oh, she was so fine 
and I'm gonna tell the world that I just ah-ah made her 
mine 

 and I said darling, tell me your name, she told me her 
name
she whispered to me, she told me her name 
and her name is, and her name is, and her name is, and her 
name is G-L-O-R-I-A
 G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria
 G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria

 I was at the stadium 
  There were twenty thousand girls called their names out 
to me 
 Marie and Ruth but to tell you the truth 
 I didn't hear them I didn't see 
 I let my eyes rise to the big tower clock 
and I heard those bells chimin' in my heart 
going ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong. 
ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong 
  counting the time, then you came to my room 
  and you whispered to me and we took the big plunge 
 and oh. you were so good, oh, you were so fine 
and I gotta tell the world that I make her mine make 
her mine 
 make her mine make her mine make her mine make her 
mine 

 G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A 
Gloria,
  G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria

and the tower bells chime, "ding dong" they chime 
  they're singing, "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not 
mine." 

 Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria 
G-L-O-R-I-A,
 Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A, G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A 
Gloria
 G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A 
Gloria,
 G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A 
Gloria,
G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A 
Gloria .
