Lyrics Converted - Alabama 3

Converted

shoot me
with the real thing
shoot me, me moth, me motha'
now’s the time for you to get right and repent
I’ve been converted
sit right there and get educated, sit right there
I’ve been converted
peace, in the valley
I’ve been converted
peace, in the valley
sit right there and get educated, sit right there
You gotta ask yourself this question:
can a man who has fought in the jungles with I.V.
Lenin against the running
bell kept the least of pigs
sleepin and huntin so lonely that the rats would search back, be my redeemer?
an’gotta say well maybe
yes, and maybe no, but I know that I gotta go somewhere, and that somewhere
might as well be church
now’s the time for you to get right and repent
I’ve been converted
fourty days you been tried and tempted
fourty nights you been out in the cold
every phone line conversation’s intercepted
you can’t reconnect 'cause the frequency is closed
so many winds you been out of direction
so many signs you ain’t got nowhere to go, yeah
cadillac has got it’s headlights disconnected
you’re rollin' your wheels down the wrong side of the road
can you see them now?
can you see them now?
can you see the sisters swinging, yeah?
can you hear them now?
can you hear them now?
now’s the time for you to get right and repent
can you hear the brothers singing, yeah?
let’s go back to church
let’s go back to church
so damn long since we sung this song, let’s go back to church
let’s go back to church
let’s go back to church
any day now, any way, any how, let’s go back to church
I’ve been converted
'cause see,
you drink the wine but it, it tastes like water
and ya broke the bread but it, it turned into stone
the sacrament it lays scattered on the pavement
and the covenants you kept they’d all been stolen under the soul
you can see them now
yeah, you can see them now
you can see the sisters swinging, yeah
I know it now
yeah you can hear them now
yeah you can hear them now
hear the brothers singing yeah
let’s go back to church
