[Intro]
Black habit falling
Seem so divine
Lay down your pure intention
Let it serve you right
Serve you right

[Verse 1]
Sweet sister Mary
It ain't black or white
You got your apprehension
I got what you like

[Pre-Chorus]
And you know aw aw aw
You're way uptight

[Chorus 1]
Aw aw aw

[Verse 2]
Lay down your habit honey
Heaven knows my love will serve you right
Salvation becomes my silent
But you know redemption comes tonight
Let me serve you right
Let me serve you right
I'm your confessor
Tell me what you need
Purge every dirty secret
And come clean with me

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause you know aw aw aw
What you need

[Chorus 1]
Aw aw aw

[Chorus 2]
Lay down your habit honey
Heaven knows my love will serve you right
Salvation becomes my silent
But you know redemption comes tonight
Let me serve you right, hey hey yeah

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus 2]
Lay down your habit honey
Heaven knows my love will serve you right
Salvation becomes my silent
But you know redemption comes tonight
I'm not the second coming
But you know I'll be the first to try
To show you there's still something
Momma come with me, I'll serve you right
Let me serve you right
[Outro]
