Reformed Baptist Blues Lyrics
[Intro]
Reformed baptist blues
[Verse 1]
Comely woman why you treating me this way?
Got religion instead of loving now you're praying
You know I know I was everything you need
Traded good times for a reverend's guarantees
[Chorus]
I ain't no preaching man don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
[Verse 2]
Now you wake me when I should be sleeping in
Drag me out to your place of worshipping
Missed the football now for six weeks in a row
It's depressing to this man from golden door
[Chorus]
I ain't no preaching man, don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
[Bridge]
Absolution is a bummer I have found
Re-baptism is just another way to drown
God's salvation doesn't interest me at all
Found the answer at the bottom of a bottle
Reformed baptist blues
[Verse 1]
Comely woman why you treating me this way?
Got religion instead of loving now you're praying
You know I know I was everything you need
Traded good times for a reverend's guarantees
[Chorus]
I ain't no preaching man don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
[Verse 2]
Now you wake me when I should be sleeping in
Drag me out to your place of worshipping
Missed the football now for six weeks in a row
It's depressing to this man from golden door
[Chorus]
I ain't no preaching man, don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
[Bridge]
Absolution is a bummer I have found
Re-baptism is just another way to drown
God's salvation doesn't interest me at all
Found the answer at the bottom of a bottle
[Verse 3]
Now you curse me every time I tell a lie
Trade my gold chains for starched black pants and ties
Can't beseech you that our marriage is a fraud
Can't get screwed around when the other guy is God
[Outro]
I ain't no preaching man
Don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
Wooo hoo!
Now you curse me every time I tell a lie
Trade my gold chains for starched black pants and ties
Can't beseech you that our marriage is a fraud
Can't get screwed around when the other guy is God
[Outro]
I ain't no preaching man
Don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
I got those slowly sinking reformed baptist blues
Wooo hoo!
