"Back To The Days Of The Romans" lyrics - LOU CHRISTIE

Let me save thee, save thee from the den of iniquity
Let me save thee, we're repeating Roman history
Our mysteries on pencil and paper to touch a way of livin'
It's not in the bag, honey, I'll bunch and sag, the Romans did it
But I'll give you moonlight, old fashioned moonlight
Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me

Back to the days of the Romans, baby, that's where we're goin'
(That's where we're goin')
That's where we're goin'
Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah

Let me save thee from walkin' the path of least resistance
Let me save thee, baby don't laugh with the devil's existence
Those were fine, they were havin' some time
When Caesar lost his handle

I prayed for all, they were havin' a ball
On women and scare 'em
But I'll give you moonlight, old fashioned moonlight
Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me

Back to the days of the Romans, baby, that's where we're goin'
(That's where we're goin')
That's where we're goin'
Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah

Moonlight, old fashioned moonlight
Moonlight, old fashioned moonlight

Back to the days of the Romans, baby, that's where we're goin'
(That's where we're goin')
That's where we're goin'
Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah

Back to the days of the Romans, baby, that's where we're goin'
(That's where we're goin')
That's where we're goin'
Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah

Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
