It Ain’t No Sin

Now some people
When you walk up and talk to 'em
They wear this manufactured smile
You can't tell if they're really happy
Or just, just tryin' to be in style
You know it's like, it's like somebody told 'em
(Oh, yeah, it is)
Only sinners have a frown
Hey, but when you're really hurtin'
(Oh, when you're really hurtin')
It ain't no crime for bein' down, no, it ain't

Now, obedience, that means sufferin'
And to some, that may be news
Jesus paid our lifetime membership, yes, He did
But you still gotta pay some dues
So, when all Job's comforters surround you
And your prayers all seem refused
Don't you lie about your troubles
Don't you do it
It ain't no sin, to get the blues

Now, some folks they really dig self-pity
But you know, others make it clear
That if it were possible
They'd rewrite the Epistles and the Gospels
So that, nobody, nobody ever had to shed a tear

But everybody gotta suffer sometimes
We all gotta work out our salvation on our own
Jesus never told you
Pain'd never get a hold of you
He said, "I'll never leave you all alone"

So, when you feel those tears start rollin'
Don't you get yourself confused
He'll dry those tears if you'll just cry 'em
(Oh, yes, you will)
It ain't no sin, to get the blues

Now, you can say you're doin' fine
(You can say you're doin' fine)
Say there nothin' on your mind
Denounce it and deny it
Stick your head down in the sand
Try and make out like you're Superman
But ain't, ain't nobody, nobody
Nobody really gonna buy it

But everybody gotta suffer
Everybody gotta suffer sometimes
We all got to work out, to work out
To work out, to work out
Our salvation on our own
Jesus never told you
Pain'd never get a hold of you
He said, "I'll never, I'll never leave you all alone"

So, when you feel those tears start rollin'
(Oh, when those tears start rollin')
Don't you go and get yourself all confused
(Oh, don't be confused)
He'll dry your tears if you'll just cry 'em
It ain't no sin, to get the blues
He'll dry your tears
If you'll just go ahead and cry 'em
It ain't no sin, to get the blues
(Whoo!)
