Church

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

Well I went to church last Sunday, so I could sing and pray

But something quite unusual happened on that day

The church it started right on time, just like it does without a doubt

And everything was all just fine except when it came time to let us outYou know the preacher, he kept preaching

He told us, "I have one more thing to say

Children before you think of leaving

You better think about the Judgment Day"And now, now everyone got nervous

Because everyone was hungry too

And everyone was wondering

What was the next thing he would doAnd the, the preacher, he kept preaching

He said, "Now I'll remind you if I may

You all better pay attention

And I might decide to preach all day"And now everyone was getting so hungry

That the, the old ones started feeling ill

And the weak ones started passing out

And the young ones, they could not sit stillAnd the, the preacher's voice rose higher

I snuck up on the balcony

And I crept into the choir and I begged them

Brothers, sisters, help me pleaseI said, "When I give you a signal "

I said, "When I raise up my hand

Won't you please join with me?

Together and praise the Lord, I have a plan"And the preacher he kept preaching

Long is the struggle, hard the fight

And I prayed, Father please forgive me

I stood up and with all my might I sangTo the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher said

Now it's to the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now, let's go eatYes and I did give a signal yes

And I raised up my hands

Joined with me the choir

Yes every woman, child, and man they sangTo the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher said

Now it's to the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eatAnd the preacher, he stopped preaching

And a hush the church did fill

And then a, a great white dove from up above

Landed on the window sillAnd the dove flew down beside him

And a, a fork appeared right in his hand

And with everybody watching

Preacher ate that bird right there and thenAnd now everyone got really nervous

And the preacher he did start to glow

And as we watched on in disbelief

These were the words he spokeHe said, "Now mama's in the kitchen

She's been there all day

And I know she's cooking something good

So bow our heads and pray and he sang"To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher said

Now it's to the Lord let praised be

It's time for dinner now, let's go eatAnd the moral of this story

Children it is plain but true

God knows if a preacher preaches long enough

Even he'll get hungry too and he'll singTo the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher said

Now it's to the Lord let praised be

It's time for dinner now let's go eatTo the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidHe said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidHe said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidHe said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidTo the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidHe said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher saidHe said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"

We've got some beans and some good cornbread

I listened to what the preacher said

He said, "To the Lord let praises be

It's time for dinner now let's go eat"
