Letra de Preacher In the Ring Pt. I
Spent the night over at a friend's place Sunday morning came, he was in my face Said I wanna take you to a place Put you in a state of graceDrove way out to a cinder block house I walked in like a Thomas in doubt Saw a man in a reptile suit with a rattling sound Whoa no, whoa no I can't get with this here, I know Never seen nothin' like this before Hey-ey-hey-eyAnd Hallelujah and praise the man Upstairs with the long hand Wrap the snake and the angels sing Take your ride with the preacher in the ringThere was bitin' and jumpin' And moans and wails Believers out shakin' on the spirit trail Then some came and threw The man in jail, the man in jailLifted up the snake overhead so high Eyes closed tight but he praised the sky Was a wild-eyed scramble over tables And chairs to see the light Whoa, whoa, so long Copperheads and sacred songs The book of Mark couldn't be wrong Hey-ey-hey-eyHallelujah and praise the man Upstairs with the long hand Wrap the snake and watch 'em all sting And they go ten rounds with the preacher in the ringSay they're lockin' 'em up They've got 'em on the run Might as well sue all the doctors When they don't get it done Not everything everybody doesWorks all the time, son Whoa no, whoa no Say you got the answer Well, how do you know? It works for me, that's all I know Hey-ey-hey-eyHallelujah and praise the man Upstairs with the long hand Wrap the snake and watch 'em all sting As they go ten rounds with the preacher in the ring
