The Answer - Preachin Lyrics

Gonna get me a religion, I’m gonna join the baptist church
I am
Gonna get me a religion, I’m gonna join the baptist church
That’s right
Gonna be a baptist preacher so that I won’t have to work

Well, I’m in the bullpit jumpin’ up and down, down, down, down, down
Yeah, I’m in the bullpit jumpin’ up and down
Okay

Well I be harboring good news, oh to miles around
O-ho

My sister ???, ooh she began to grin. Yeah she did
Well my sister ???, ooh she began to grin
She said: Good lord forgive me, please forgive me for my sins
Forgive me now, please please please

Ah yes

Get me a religion, gonna join the baptist church
Climb up this mountain, shining down upon my work
Get me a religion, gonna join the baptist church

Now we’re gonna lift it up
Yes we’ve got to lift it up
Tell me do you feel alright
Tell me do you feel alright
Then we can scream and shout
Yes we can scream and shout
Then you can clap your hands
Yeah you can clap your hands
Well you can clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands
Ah you can clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands

Ooooh
I’m gonna get me a religion, ooh I’m gonna join the baptist church
That’s right
Yeah, I’m gonna get me a religion, I’m gonna join the baptist church

Gonna preach all day so I don’t have to work
Preach all day so I don’t have to work
Gonna preach all day so I don’t hurt
Gonna preach all day so I don’t know
Gonna preach all day so I don’t have to
Work no more
Work no more
Work no more
Work no more

I ain’t gonna work
I don’t wanna work
I ain’t gonna work no more
