It was a hot Sunday Mornin
Middle of July
The choir was a singin
Bout the sweet by and by
Everybody was a swayin

And sweatin  in the heat
We all bowed our heads down
As the preacher took his seat
My sister and my brother
Stodd next to my mother
In the quiet at the close of the verse

That's when daddy cut the big one
At the Horn Lake Mississippi
Missionary Baptist Church

My sister rolled her eyes back
My brother bit his lip
My cousin just behind us
Whispered   Hey  who let it rip

I stuck my face in my shirtsleeve
Stared down at my shoes
Lord you could hear a pin drop
As we stood there in the pew
Heads were turnin  eyes were burnin'
Momma stuck her nose in her purse
After daddy cut the big one
At the Norm Lake Mississippi
Missionary Baptist Church

He cut the big one
It was a stinker
Then he broke the silence
With a sniker

And us kids started laughlin
Till I thoughts we was all gonna burst
After daddy cut the big one

At the Horn Lake Mississippi
Missionary Baptist Church

He said  The devil made me do it
Momma said it was the liverwurst
And that's why daddy cut the bid one
At the Horn Lake Mississippi
Missionary Baptist Church
