My Daddy was a sinner, but my
|
Mother was a saintly person
|
But I ruined my life by drinking, bad
|
Wives, taking pills and cursing
|
Rock and Roll you crucified me,
|
Left me all alone
|
I never should have turned my back on
|
The old folks back home
|
|
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
|
Church of the Holy Spook
|
Church of the Holy Spook, it's good enough for me
|
It was good for me dear old Daddy
|
and my dear old Mammy too
|
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
|
I don't need nothin' new
|
|
I believe in the Church of the Holy Spook
|
I believe that he's in me
|
The Tao is like a river, so float along with me
|
When the sacred blood of the Holy Ghost
|
is boiling in my veins
|
I think of Jesus on the cross
|
and I scream out for his pain.
|
|
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
|
Church of the Holy Spook
|
Church of the Holy Spook, it's good enough for me
|
It was good for me dear old Daddy
|
and my dear old Mammy too
|
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
|
I don't need nothin' new
