[00:00.001] let the glory of the lord
[00:06.000] We're coming, we're coming, our brave little band
[00:09.400] On the right side of temperance we do take our stand
[00:13.100] We don't use tobacco, because we do think
[00:18.550] The people who use it are likely to drink
[00:22.366] Away, away with rum by gum, with rum by gum, with rum by gum
[00:30.111] Away, away with rum by gum, the song of the Salvation Army
[00:41.266] We never eat cookies because they have yeast
[00:45.029] And one little bite turns a man to a beast
[00:48.897] Oh, can you imagine a sadder disgrace
[00:53.949] Than a man in the gutter with crumbs on his face
[00:57.485] Away, away with rum by gum, with rum by gum, with rum by gum
[01:05.005] Away, away with rum by gum, the song of the Salvation Army
[01:16.418] We don't allow backrubs, we think they're a crime
[01:20.089] We will always condemn them in song or in rhyme
[01:23.845] An alcohol backrubs is worse than straight gin:
[01:28.815] When you think of the liquor absorbed thru your skin!
[01:32.428] Away, away with rum ,woke up  brothers and sisters , woke up and repents
[01:40.112] Away, away with rum by gum, the song of the Salvation Army
[01:51.437] We never eat fruit cake because it has rum
[01:55.332] And one little taste turns a man to a bum
[01:58.999] Oh, can you imagine a sorrier sight
[02:03.766] Than a man eating fruit cake until he gets tight
[02:07.703] Away, away with rum by gum, with rum by gum, with rum by gum
[02:15.448] Away, away with rum by gum, the song of the Salvation Army
