[00:16.67]He’s got old time religion
[00:21.02]Buries his cash in a coffee can
[00:24.52]And he makes his decisions
[00:28.98]Down on his knees yeah he’s a full grown man
[00:32.62]And he had a vision
[00:36.54]Of a fire it burned up all of the land
[00:40.35]You could call it superstition
[00:44.56]You could run just as fast as you can
[00:49.81]He took a beating
[00:53.01]His father screamed at the top of his lungs
[00:57.00]An Old Testament reading
[01:00.56]If you spare the rod you spoil the son
[01:04.51]He’s got scars for his bleeding
[01:08.93]Fear of god fills everyone
[01:12.67]You can listen to him pleading
[01:17.02]Pleadings for the holy son (to)
[01:20.51]Chorus:
[01:21.75]Give me that old time religion
[01:24.32]Give me that old time religion
[01:28.14]Give me that old time religion
[01:32.93]It’s good enough for me
[01:37.49]
[01:41.98](Instrumental break)
[01:42.40]
[01:52.04]He’s got a King James edition
[01:56.98]With all of the words of Christ in red
[02:00.73]And he reads the inscription
[02:05.08]Every night when he goes to bed
[02:09.18]And he goes fishing
[02:12.96]For sin in men like Jesus said
[02:16.55]Got an old time conviction
[02:20.57]Keeps the bodies in the shed
[02:25.12]He had a woman
[02:29.03]Took her to church every Sunday morn
[02:32.65]He said submit to your husband
[02:36.81]Submit to me thus, sayeth the Lord
[02:40.66]Well he never saw it coming
[02:44.61]When she tried to get away in his ‘34 Ford
[02:48.62]Now a widower is strumming on a banjo with a missing cord
[03:02.19]Chorus:
[03:02.56]Give me that old time religion
[03:05.91]Give me that old time religion
[03:09.77]Give me that old time religion
[03:14.55]It’s good enough for me
[03:17.61](Instrumental break)
[03:18.49]
[03:33.89]Give me that old time religion
[03:38.11]Give me that old time religion
[03:41.73]Give me that old time religion
[03:46.65]It’s good enough
[03:48.57]It’s good enough
[03:50.48]It’s good enough for me
[03:54.06]
