Brethen n' sisters, one and all Ain't ya gonna harken to the Giver's call? The Giver's call on the Judgment Day Poor Little Moses gone away [Chorus] Where ya goin', Moses? None a' your business Come here, Moses! I ain't gun' do it Brother Ephus got a coon and gone-oh Gone-oh, gone-oh Brother Ephus got a coon and gone-oh And left me barkin' up a tree Boil my coffee good and strong Bake my ho'cakes good and done Make up a feather bed, make it up right
Cuz old Brother Johns is comin' here tonight [Chorus] What kinda slippers does an angel wear? Golden slippers to skeet[?] on air They wear fine slippers and wear fine socks And drop every nickel in the missionary box [Chorus] Some folks say a preacher won't steal But I caught two in my watermelon field A' Preachin' and prayin' and singin' all the time Slippin' the watermelons off the vine [Chorus]
