I′m gonna get me some religion

I'm gonna join the Baptist church

I′m gonna get me some religionI'm gonna join the Baptist church

Gonna be a preacher

So I don't have to work

I wish I had a heaven (heaven)

A heaven of my own

I wish I had a heaven (heaven)

A heaven of my own

Give all of my women

A long and happy home

I′m gonna preach these blues (these blues)

I′m gonna pick my seat and sit down

I'm gonna preach these blues (these blues)

I′m gonna pick my seat and sit down

'Cause when the spirit comes

Lord knows I′m gonna watch it too

Grabbed up my suitcase

And took off down the road

Grabbed up my suitcase

And took off down the road

I said, "Farewell, my church"

"May the good Lord bless your soul"

Bless your soul

Bless your soul

Bless your soul

Bless your soul
