Denomination Blues, Pt. 1
I want to tell you the natural fact
Every man don't understand the bible alike
But that's all, now, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I tell you that's all
Well, the denominations has no right to fight
They ought to just treat each other right
And that's all, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I'll tell you that's all
The Primitive Baptists, they believe
You can't get to Heaven unless'n you wash your feet
But that's all, now, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I'll tell you that's all
The onliest Primitive that has any part
Is the one that got the washing with the pure in heart
And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I'll tell you that's all
Now, the Missionary Baptists, they believe
Go under the water and not to wash his feet
And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now, the A.M.E. Methodists, they believe
Sprinkle their head, to not to wash their feet
And that's all, now, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now the A.M.E. Methodists, they believe
Sprinkle the head and not to wash their feet
And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now the African Methodists, they believes the same
'Cause they know denominations ain't a thing but a name
And that's all, now, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now the Holiness People, when they came in
They said, "Boys, we think you'll make it by livin' above sin"
But that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I'll tell you that's all
Now, the Church of God had it in their mind
That they can get to Heaven without the sacrament wine
But that's all, now, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I'll tell you that's all
Every man don't understand the bible alike
But that's all, now, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I tell you that's all
Well, the denominations has no right to fight
They ought to just treat each other right
And that's all, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I'll tell you that's all
The Primitive Baptists, they believe
You can't get to Heaven unless'n you wash your feet
But that's all, now, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, I'll tell you that's all
The onliest Primitive that has any part
Is the one that got the washing with the pure in heart
And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I'll tell you that's all
Now, the Missionary Baptists, they believe

And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now, the A.M.E. Methodists, they believe
Sprinkle their head, to not to wash their feet
And that's all, now, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all
Now the A.M.E. Methodists, they believe
Sprinkle the head and not to wash their feet
And that's all, I tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I tell you that's all

But that's all, now, I'll tell you that's all
But you better have Jesus, now, I'll tell you that's all
