Preaching The Blues Pt1 - Son House

　　Oh I'm gone get me religion I'm gone join the baptist church

　　Oh I'm gone get me religion I'm gone join the baptist church

　　I'm gone be a baptist preacher and I sure won't have to work

　　Oh I'm gonna preach these blues now and I want everybody to shout

　　Mmm mmm I want everybody to shout

　　I'm gonna do like a prisoner I'm gone roll my time on out

　　Oh in my room I bowed down to pray

　　Oh up in my room I bowed down to pray

　　Then the blues come along and they blowed my spirit away

　　Oh I'd a had religion Lord this very day

　　Oh I'd a had religion Lord this very day

　　But the womens and whiskey well they would not let me pray

　　Oh I wish I had me a heaven of my own

　　Praise God almighty

　　Yeah heaven of my own

　　Then I'd give all my women a long long happy home

　　Yeah I love my baby just like I love myself

　　Oh just like I love myself

　　But if she don't have me she won't have nobody else
