"Always Gotta Paid In The End" lyrics - ROGER CHAPMAN

Oh it rained oh it poured Lord how the sky came down
Impaling the ship to the sea for a time
It sits out there on the horizons bow, the storm passing
Over us now -

For a time out there we were the mice of men we cried,
'We're frightened Lord we'll never sin again'
He heard the ship was alive and then the
Storm was heading over the bend
No matter how it comes, whatever way you run -
Always gotta pay in the end
Gotta get the sting, whatever you win,
Always gotta pay in the end -

We stood and we waited for the trade winds to blow
More than a hatful of breeze to the sail,
For days we sat on the mirrored land with lips all
Blistered and pale -

Too late we heard oh the laughter ring
It rang throwing the gauntlet down about our ears,
It sang oh yes you are the mice of men, saying
Nothing but your daily fears
No matter how it comes, whatever way you run,
Always gotta pay in the end
Gonna get the sting whatever you win,
Always gotta pay in the end
Jumping up and down, no matter how,
Always gotta pay in the end
No matter what you say, for what you pray,
Always gotta pay in the end -

For a time out there we were the mice of men we cried,
'We're frightened Lord we'll never sin again',
He heard the ship was alive
And then the storm was heading over the bend -

For all time we are the mice of men
We cry praying hard for the sins in our hearts again,
He laughs we all come alive
But then we always gotta pay in the end
