Ry Cooder - DENOMINATION BLUES lyrics

rate me

(Washington Phillips)

(G) - (C) - (D)

(G) I wanna tell you people it's a nat'ral fact

Ev'ry man don't understand the Bible alike

And that's (C) all, I tell you that's (G) all

'Cause you better have (D) Jesus

I tell you that's (G) all

Well, the denominations have the right to fight

They ought go on and treat each other right

And that's all, I tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I tell you that's all

It's right to stand together, wrong to stand apart

When none will enter heaven but the pure at heart

And that's all, I'll tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I'll tell you that's all

Well, the primitive Baptists they believe

That you can't go to heaven 'less you wash your feet

And that's all, I'll tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I tell you that's all

Well, the African Methodists, they believe the same

'Cause they know demonination ain't a thing but a name

And that's all, I'll tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I tell you that's all

Well, people that jump from church to church

You can bet their conversion don't amount too much

And that's all, I'll tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I tell you that's all

Well, you can to your college, you can go to your school

But if you ain't got Jesus, you'se (you are) an educated fool

And that's all, I'll tell you that's all

'Cause you better have Jesus

I tell you that's all
