Religious Songs
3   Some member in the churches, They dressed and they dressed so fine; But when you come to find out, They been somewhere drinkin' 'shine.
4  You say you've been converted, You ought to quit telling lies; Quit drinking so much whisky, Live more civilized.
5  Preacher in the pulpit. Preaches so loud and bold; He's preachin' all about money, Nothin' about savin' your soul.
6  Your brother borrow your money. He promise shore to pay; When he see you comin5
He turn some other way.
7  When the preacher was a-preachin' while ago Sister was about to shout;
Now deacon wants a little collection, You got your lips poked out.
8   Fuss comes up in the church house, Comes from the deacons' side;
If you ask them anything about it, They will ask you out to fight.
9  Some preachers are out preachin' Just for the preacher's name; Their doctrine and preachin' Are a scandal and a shame.
10 Some deacons in the churches Are livin' with two wives; You tell them of true glory And you'll see their tempers rise.
[29]
