|
I'm gonna sing you a brand new song |
|
It's all the truth for certain |
|
We can't live high if we get by |
|
And get on the other side of Jordan |
|
Oh pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves |
|
Jordan is a hard road to travel |
|
Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves |
|
Jordan is a hard road to travel I believe. |
|
The public schools and the highways |
|
are causing quite an alarm |
|
Get a country boy educated just a little |
|
and he won't work on the farm |
|
Now I don't know but I believe I'm right |
|
the auto's ruined the country |
|
Let's get back to the horse and buggy |
|
and try to save some money. |
|
I know a man an evangelist |
|
his tabernacle's always full |
|
The people come from miles around |
|
just to hear him shoot the bull |
|
You can talk about your evangelists |
|
you can talk about Mr. Ford too |
|
But Henry's shaking more hell out of the folks |
|
than all the evangelists do. |
