Religion Lyrics

Religion lyrics

It was early Sunday morning

 Everyone in the house was still asleep

 She made some toast and coffee

 Took a shower and made herself smell sweet

 She said, "I don't want a bus ride,

 I believe that the walk might help me think

 Got a heart kind of heavy

 I need some big hat and gloves, shoes and bag religion!"

 

 Religion

 That's my decision

 Some of that "make me feel better when I shout!!!" religion

 That's my decision

 

 Papa Henry was full of spice

 He was a man usually nice

 But something got into him last night

 Made him want to fuss and hollar

 The entire house was in a sweat

 His bottle got broken and the floor got wet

 "Clean it up!" you could hear him scream

 Then he said, "I'm going out"

 I need religion

 

 Religion

 That's my decision

 Some of that "raise up the roof, 90 proof" religion

 That's my decision

 Religion

 It's my decision, oh yes it is

 That's my decision

 

 It's the story about a good family

 Who doesn't live anymore in good harmony

 They are people who love their daughter and son

 They try to give them religion

 

 Little Billy likes his best friend Jack

 How in the world could he be like that

 Mama and Henry wanna have that chat

 Boy, you need religion

 

 Little Betty, whatcha gonna do?

 There's a child growing inside of you 

 You should've stopped and thought things through

 Little girl you need a vision of religion

 

 Religion

 And that's my decision

 Some of that "how'd I get on Rikki Lake" religion

 That's my decision

 Religion

 Get a little, 

 Religion

 Get a little

 Religion
