Oh, she used to stand and clap her hands and sing Amazing Grace
While the tears of childhood innocence were rolling down her face
Mama prayed at night and raised her right and thought she knew the way
But it's a long, long way from Sunday School to where she is today
It's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
She's a long way from the girl she used to be
When you sing a sinner's song, it's hard to find your way back home
Well, it's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
Sunday evenings spent in a gospel tent down on her bended knee
There she gave her soul to Jesus and He set her spirit free
But the cold night air out on Times
Square ain't what she felt back home
And it's a long, long way from Sunday School to New York nights alone
It's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
She's a long way from the girl she used to be
When you sing a sinner's song, it's hard to find your way back home
Well, it's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
And her eyes grew bright in the cool
Dark night and a halo framed her face
And a passer-by swore he heard her cry, did he hear Amazing Grace?
He couldn't see the man who took her
Hand as she lay there in the street
But it's a long, long way from Broadway
To a place at the Master's feet
It's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway, yeah
She's a long way from the girl she used to be
When you sing a sinner's song, it's hard to find your way back home
Well, it's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
It's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
She's a long way from the girl she used to be, yeah
When you sing a sinner's song, it's hard to find your way back home
Well, it's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
It's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway, yeah
She's a long way from the girl she used to be
When you sing a sinner's song, it's hard to find your way back home
Well, it's a long, long way from Sunday School to Broadway
