Big Rude Jake - Preacher's Got a Brother lyrics

rate me

Well, in that Gospel Congregation

There’s a Holy Roller preacher

Who looks so fine and handsome

When he speaks the word of God

And when he gets into reelin’

Every mother, dame and maiden

Kinda gets a funny feelin’

like they’re all tied up in knots

But that preacher man is a righteous soul

He don’t sing and he don’t dance and he don’t mess around.

And if that breaks your heart, there’s a thing that you should know;

Preacher’s got a Brother on the Dark Side of town

Chorus:

And I say, “Hallelujah! Preacher’s got a brother,

And I might not get to Heaven, but you know I’m glory bound!”

And I say “Hallelujah! Preacher’s got a brother!

Preacher’s got a brother on the Dark side of town!”

Now, every Sunday Morning,

In that Gospel Congregation

There’s a sweet young thing whose smilin’

Like she did the night before.

‘Cause when she goes out a reelin’

And when she gets into rocking

All that fussin’ and commotion

Feels like Praising the lord!

And she loves to hear that Sweet Chariot,”

The choir sings, the chorus rings, “Rock of ages cleft for me.”

And if that’s not enough to save your very soul

Preacher’s got a brother who can rock you tenderly!!<br />
