Intro
Verse 1
Well It's A Terrible Time For A Mean Old Man
You Gotta Get To Heaven Just As Fast As You Can
Long Time Forgotten About The Good Old Days
When A Nail And A Hammer Got A Poor Man Paid
Living In A Whorehouse Sleeping With Sin
A Whole Lot Of Trouble And A Bottle Of Gin
Gotta Get A Hold On A Good Way To Feel
The Pushes And The Pulls Of The Driving Wheel
Are Getting Hard On The Hands Of A Long Time Man
Gotta Get To Heaven Just As Fast As You Can
Now Come On
Chorus
Oh Hallelujah Hallelujah
I Said Lord Won't You Take Me Down To The River
And Drown Me In Your Blood
I Said Baby Don't You Worry About My Soul
On Fire In The Morning
People Can You See My Tortured Soul
When I'm Wrestling With The Devil's Love
Riding In The Wake Of A Terrible Wind
On The Crest Of A Holy Flood
Oh Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Verse 2
Well I Used To Think
Jesus Was An Easy Way Out
But If You Want To Be A Preacher
You Gotta Learn How To Shout
Well The Words Of The
Lord's Not A Delicate Thing
With Your Hands In The Air And You're Making Them Sing
Then You're Wading In The River With Them Gathered Around
Wash Away The Troubles As You're Holding Them Down
Then You're Standing In The Grass
When The Wind Starts To Blow
Another Good Man Calling His Soul Has Flown
Slow Ride To Heaven From A Hole In The Ground
Yeah You Tell Them How You See It As They Lower Him Down
Then You Speak About The Ghost And The Life Of A Man
They Gotta Get To Heaven Just As Fast As You Can
Now Come On
Chorus
Oh Hallelujah Hallelujah
I Said Lord Won't You Take Me Down To The River
And Drown Me In Your Blood
I Said Baby Don't You Worry About My Soul
On Fire In The Morning
People Can You See My Tortured Soul
When I'm Wrestling With The Devil's Love
Riding In The Wake Of A Terrible Wind
On The Crest Of A Holy Flood
Oh Hallelujah Hallelujah Oh
