A preacher used to preach, tried to save souls
|
But now he’s preaching just to buy a jelly roll
|
|
And he calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
|
At church last night I was happy as can be
|
Preacher tried to take my wife from me
|
|
Lord he calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
|
The preacher’s defense he was a mighty true man
|
He gave his commands but he doesn’t understand
|
|
And he calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
Lord he calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
|
I woke deacon Jones, he used to pray and sing
|
But now you just see him tryina chase that thing
|
|
He calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
Lord he calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
|
Old Barry and the people stopped going to church
|
They say that preacher was always on the lurch
|
|
And he calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
Lord he calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
|
I woke deacon Jones, he was the preaching king
|
Til they caught him out back tryina shake that thing
|
|
He calls that religion
|
He calls that religion
|
Lord he calls that religion
|
But I know he’s going to hell when he dies
|
