C F G C
I went to see the preacher to teach me how to pray
F C G
He looked at me and smiled then that preacher turned away
C F G C
He said if you want to tell him something, you ain't gotta fold your hands
F C G C
Say it with your heart your soul and believe it, and I'll say amen"
[Chorus]
C F G C
Bang a drum for the sinners, bang a drum for the sins
F C G

F C G
I could kick this bad world's ass if I could just get on my feet"
