Reformed Baptist Blues (Thanks to David for the transcription)
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
I 'aint no preaching man, don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking, reformed Baptist blues
Now you wake me when I should be sleeping in
Drag me out to your place of worshiping
Missed the football now, six weeks in a row
It's depressing to this man from golden door
I 'aint no preaching man, don't know what to do
I got those slowly sinking, reformed Baptist blues
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
Now you curse me every time I tell a lie
Trade my gold chains for those 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.
I 'aint 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
