Sing You Sinners

Once a mockingbird, he was overheard

Singing out a word, to a cattle herd,

'All you bovine creatures, dig what I'm layin' down!



All you sinners drop everything.

Everything

Let the melody and the harmony ring.

Let it ring

Lift arms up to Heaven and sing.

Ring-a-ding

Sing you sinners, won't you sway & swing

What a thing



Start with clapping' y'hands all about.

All about

Don't be silent,

Let the Lord hear y'shout

Shout it out

And just let the music come out

Of yer snout

Sing you sinners, wontcha' sway & swing

Check it out

Dig the drift of what I mean



In a world where there's no music,

Old Scratch

Satan gets his kicks,

He's up to his tricks

He'll be laughing up AND down the banks,

He, He, He!

Of that River Styx



You're so wicked, baby, and you're depraved

You can rave

It's apparent that you have mis-behaved

To your grave

But if you should want to be saved

Jus' behave

Take a listen now to the bird
