[Chorus] It's the bible against the bottle In the battle for daddy's soul It's momma against the party girls Over who's gonna win control On Sunday it's Rock of Ages On Monday let the good times roll It's the bible against the bottle In the battle for daddy's soul
[Verse 1] If faith can move a mountain Moma's gonna win But even moma will admit There's a whole lot goin' for sin With sweet red wine and party girls And the big time songs to sing Maybe she could tell daddy That's really the swingin' thing
[Chorus]
[Verse 2] Well, I just can't help believing Momma's gonna win The milk of human kindness Is a whole lot stronger than gin With faith in God and daily prayer And gospel songs to sing Momma keeps a-showin daddy God's love is a precious thing
