Gomer
Pretty fool, beautiful
you laid down
you got down
with your lover what you do now no ones pitying you now
you now unfaithfulness to the Lord
You though he loved you now
you walked away from your first love
You thought he loved you child
Gomer
Unfaithful to the Lord just a whore
What if you prayed
Why? Didn't you stay
Yet you strayed no longer a virgin
Now your a burden
Gomer
It is more than his manhood
He's a man-child
Gomer
unfaithful to the Lord just a whore
Why did she pray
Why didn't you stay?
Yet she strayed
No longer a virgin now
You unfaithful to the Lord
Just a whore where are you now
How can the government and the village must now help you child
You should have kept your dress down
You should have kept your pants on
Modern Gomer
unfaithful to the Lord
just a whore
He done got what he wanted
You thought he loves you but he doesn't
He just came alone came alone to hit
6 minutes of pleasure now quit it
Now going to give you nine months of misery,
just a whore- unfaithful to the Lord just like Israel

Gomer, quite the character
He loves to run in the woods
Doesn't stay home, like he should
If only, he'd be good.
Lacy is Gomer's mama
She is up in years
She is my favorite
Losing her, I fear.
Lacy is spoiled
Isn't here at night
Her friend Micky and her
Are pretty tight.
Gomer, loves to sleep with us
He needs to feel secure
He is just as spoiled, if not more
We live them both, very dear

The greatest love story ever told,
Of a man who loved a prostitute.
Married her in her infidelity,
But later she left his love destitute.
Hosea loved Gomer through all her sin
And lack of faithfulness.
She did not deserve the love,
He gave without reservedness.
She gave him three children
But they were not his own.
She was extremely unfaithful;
Her wayward seeds were sown.
Yet he still loved her
And his heart did ache.
She despised his goodness;
His love she did forsake.
Finally Gomer left Hosea;
Went back to her old profession.
Found herself so destitute,
She became part of a human auction.
For 15 shekels of silver and some barley,
Hosea purchased his wife.
Took her back home again;
Lovingly gave her a new life.
Hosea was a type of Christ;
His love for Gomer never faltered.
Although we sin against Him;
His love for us isn’t altered.
We don’t deserve His forgiveness;
A chance to start anew.
But He gives it to us anyway,
His mercy each day to renew.
