Mona used to have a family
Mona used to have a home
With a white picket fence and a garden
And a good life to call her own
But a one night stand up in Delaware
Turned out to be no small affair
Mona used to have a family
But now she's living all alone
Johnny used to be a preacher
Preachin' for the common man
He had a big congregation
But he knew he had the upper hand
'Cause they were hanging on every word he said
Guess the power went to his head
'Cause Johnny used to be preacher
But nobody listens anymore
While it's undone and yet to be said
I've gotta live with a level head
Taking my time, hearing those tiny voices
I don't wanna be found in a tunnel of sin
Wishing I was what I could've been
Lord, have mercy, I gotta make my choices
With a level head
