Gonne get me a religion
I'm gonne join the baptist church
Gonna get me a religion
I'm gonna join the pabtist church
Gonna be a baptist preacher
So that I won't have to work
Well I'll be in the pulpit, jumping up and down
Yes I'll be in the pulpit, jumping up and down
I'll be hollerin good news for miles around
My sister jumped up, she began to grin
Yeh my sister jumped up and she began to grin
She said good lord have mercy
Please forgive me for my sins
