Birth, Marriage, Funeral

I entered the church three times

Only three times all my life

 

I entered the church three times

First time when I was baptized

 

I entered the church three times

Second time when I married

 

I entered the church three times

Last time, lying on coffin's bed

 

I should have entered the church

Every Sunday of the week

 

I should have entered the church

More times but it's too late
