Willie Nelson (The) Most Unoriginal Sin Lyrics

What there was left of us, was all covered in dust and thick skin
A half eaten apple or the whole Sistine Chapel painted on the head of a pin
A life long lost work going up in a smirk
And you didn't even see her waltz in
Now this love is a ghost, having played host to the most unoriginal sin

At the wedding we smiled, as some devil played wild violin
Soon after the chapel, she offered me that apple
One bite and I was gone with the wind
And you needed no proof, 'caus the whole necked truth
Was wearing on an infidel's grin
And a proud schoolboy's boast, of having left his post
For the most unoriginal sin.

Now the jukebox is humming all the venal shorcomings of men
But I found me this drink that can finally sink
All the skills that I'd been wallowing in
Buddy once you get started, once true love's departed
You do it over and over again
So tonight I will toast, just whoever comes close, to the most unoriginal sin.
So tonight I will toast, just whoever comes close, to the most unoriginal sin.
