Preachin'

Gonna get me a religion
I'm gonna join the Baprist Church
I am, I'm gonna get me a religion
I'm gonna join the Baprist Church, that's right

Gonna be a Baptist preacher
So that I won't have to work

Well, I'll be in the pulpit, jumpin' up and down, down, down, down, down
Yeah, I'll be in the pulpit, jumpin' up and down, okay
Well, I'll be hollerin' good news for miles around

My sister jumped up, she began to grin, yeah, she did
Well, my sister jumpted up hoo, she began to grin
She said good Lord have mercy
Please, forgive me for my sins
Forgive me, now
Please, please, please

Get me religion, gonna join the Baptist Church
Climb up this mountain, shining down upon my work
Get me religion, gonna join the Baptist Church

Now we're gonna lift it up
Yes, we've got to lift it up
Tell me, do you feel alright?
Tell me, do you feel alright?

Then we can scream (Lord, have mercy) and shout
Yeah, we can scream (Lord, have mercy) and shout
Then you can clap (Lord, have mercy) your hands
Yeah, you can clap (Lord, have mercy) oh, your hands (forgive me for my sins, Lord have mercy)

Well, you can clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands
Ah, you can clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands

Ooh
I'm gonna get me religion, ooh
I'm gonna join the Baptist Church (that's right)
Yeah, I'm gonna get me a religion
I'm gonna join the baptist church

Gonna preach all day so I don't have to work
Preach all day so I don't have to work
Gonna preach all day so I don't hurt
I preach all day so I don't know
I preach all day so I don't have to

Work no more
Work no more
Work no more
Work no more

I ain't gonna work
I don't wanna work
I ain't gonna work no more
