'Moan You Moaners' Lyrics

Sisters and brothers
we may care on some serious buiseness..

There has been some back biting gooing on..
and the thing i want to know is who's been doing it
Its a shame its a shame its a shame
the thing i want to know is what
Bit me on my. i mean who spit me on my back..

EEE you sinners
hear my call
satan's waiting for you all
better get you'r souls washed white
better see the light.. AMEN

fire is burning down below
if you aint right down you go
to original hot brim stone
let you start right in to moan

you better get down on your knees
and let the god lord hear your pleads
on that you want to rest with ease
moan you moaners

just bend your head way down and pray
to have the devil chased away
come let your souls be saved today
moan you moaners

singing halleluja
flod up the lamb
let your voice is right
if they talking to you
aint got no time to sham
if you want to get to paradise

you must repeat without a doubt
and let the good lord hear you shout
religion turnes you inside out moan you moaners

you better get down on your knees
and let the god lord hear your pleads
on that you want to rest with ease
moan you moaners

just bend your head way down and pray
to have the devil chased away
come let your souls be saved today
moan you moaners

singing halleluja
flod up the lamb
let your voice is right
if they talking to you
aint got no time to sham
if you want to get to paradise

within without a doubt
and let the good lord hear you shout
religion turnes you inside out moan you moaners
