Long haired preachers come out every night
Try to tell you what's wrong and what's right
But when they’re asked about something to eat
They will answer with voices so sweet:
You will eat, bye
You will eat, bye
You will eat, bye
You will eat, bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
In that glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
That glorious land in the sky
In the sky
Work and pray, live on hay!
If you fight hard for children and wife
Try to get something good in this life
You are a sinner and bad man, they tell
When you die you will sure go to hell
(they say:)
Eat bye, you will eat bye
You will eat, bye
You will eat, bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye, bye and bye
Bye and bye and bye and bye...
That glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
In that glorious land in the sky
In the sky
Work and pray, live on hay!
That glorious land in the sky
Work and pray live on hay!
That glorious land in the sky
Work and pray live on hay!
That glorious land in the sky
Work and pray live on hay!
That glorious land in the sky
Work and pray live on hay!
That glorious land in the sky
Work and pray live on hay!
