Four Chords and the Gospel

from The Bible Belt Sessions, Vol. 1 by John Lucas

/

lyrics

Mister loosen that tie
And don’t bother with your tent
Oh I expect they’ll be a few stars tonight

My soul don’t need no savin’
And I reckon everybody in this town’s
Been saved a few times before

We all drink a little whisky
And we all play a few cards
But the Holy Ghost runs free in these hills
-
We’ve got four chords and the gospel
If you want to sing a few hymns while
The children dance barefoot in the grass

We’ve all seen our share of sorrows
We’ve all learned to give and to borrow
Our barn’s been full and our barns been bare

They say a chord of three strands
Ain’t easily broken
Oh we’ve got four chords and the gospel, babe
