Preachin' the Blues Part 1 |
| Oh, I’m gon' get me religion I’m gon' join the baptist church |
| Oh, I’m gon' get me religion I’m gon' join the baptist church |
| I’m gon' be a baptist preacher and I sure won’t have to work |
| Oh, I’m gonna preach these blues now, and I want everybody to shout |
| Mmm-mmm, I want everybody to shout |
| I’m gonna do like a prisoner, I’m gon' roll my time on out |
| Oh, in my room I bowed down to pray |
| Oh, up in my room I bowed down to pray |
| Then the blues come along and they blowed my spirit away |
| Oh, I’d’a had religion, Lord, this very day |
| Oh, I’d’a had religion, Lord, this very day |
| But the womens and whiskey, well, they would not let me pray |
| Oh, I wish I had me a heaven of my own, |
| (praise God almighty) |
| Yeah, heaven of my own, |
| Then I’d give all my women a long, long happy home |
| Yeah, I love my baby just like I love myself |
| Oh, just like I love myself |
| But if she don’t have me she won’t have nobody else. |
