Could've Had Religion

about

As a tribute to Rory Gallagher who passed away 25 years ago, I'm releasing this well known track of his, Could've Had Religion which was recorded live at Green Note in London in late 2019.

lyrics

Written by Rory Gallagher

Well I could've had, I could've had religion
But my little girl wouldn't let me pray
I swear to the world she drove my spirit away
She drove my spirit away, she drove my spirit away
I could've had religion, I could've had religion
But my little girl wouldn't let me pray
I tell the truth, she drove my spirit away
She drove my spirit away
I could've been, I could've been a preacher,
But I changed my mind the other nigh
The woman I have now, she would not treat me right
She would not treat me right
I've been a bad man, as bad can be
Gonna pray to the Lord above to send his blessing on me
I want some mercy, you got set my soul free
Set my soul free, Please..
I could've had, I could've had religion
But my little girl wouldn't let me pray.
Well, demon woman, you sent the devil my way,
You sent the devil my way.
Oh Lord above please send my fire,
Send your mercy right down to me.
That woman set the devil on me,
She set the devil on me,
She set the devil one me,
She set the devil on me.
Could've had religion
