The Jubalaires The Preacher and The Bear Lyrics Old time re-li-li-ligion brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (Why don't ya give me that-a) brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother that's-a good en-enough for me, My lord it's that-a old time re-li-li-ligion brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (Why don't ya give me that-a) brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother that's-a good en-enough for me, Yes just come on brothers if ya want you to hear, A story about that preacher and the bear, Gather 'round boys I don't want ya to miss, None of this here story 'cuz it goes like this, A preacher, He went out, To huntin', It was on one Sunday morning, Though he was one Christian young man but he took his gun along, Well the first thing he shot was a bunch of fine quails, And he shot him a nice fat hare, Then through the woods on his way Back home he met a great big grizzly bear, Then the reverend fell down upon his knees, He sent up a great long prayer, Whilst he cast one eye to the heaven on High but kept the other eye on the bear, He said the Lord delivered Daniel from the lion's den, Jonah from the belly of the whale, The three Hebrew boys from the fiery furnace, Say the Good Book do declare, Now look here Lord if ya don't help me, Don't ya go to helpin' that bear, Old time re-li-li-ligion he needed that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (he needed) he needed that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother that's-a good en-enough for me, My lord it's that-a old time re-li-li-ligion brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (Why don't ya give me that-a) brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother it's-a good en-enough for me, Yes then the bear walked out in the middle of the road, Up to the reverend walks he, That reverend layed his religion down, He climbed up a tall pine tree, Yes he climbed way up to the top of That tree and climbed out on a limb, Whilst the bear sits down so aimlessly, And licked his mouth at him, Around about three o'clock the old limb broke, Reverend came tumbling down, Boy he grabbed his knife he cut the bear ten times, Before he struck the ground, Old time re-li-li-ligion he needed some, Old time re-li-li-ligion (he needed some) he needed some-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother it's-a good en-enough for me, My lord it's that the old time re-li-li-ligion brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (Why don't ya give me that-a) brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother it's-a good en-enough for me, Yes then the bear reached out to give the Reverend a hug like you would hug a long lost friend, But ol' reverend put on that Disappearin' act he went splittin' through the wind, Old reverend went to running like an Old hound dog trying to overtake a hare, He went to home went to bed and took six naps, Before his shadow got there, Old time re-li-li-ligion he had that, Old time re-li-li-ligion (he had that) he had that, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother it's-a good en-enough for me, My lord it's that-a old time re-li-li-ligion brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion (Why don't ya give me that-a) brother that-a, Old time re-li-li-ligion brother it's-a good En-enough for me (since brother the preacher made a touchdown) For more of that old time religion and great vintage music, listen to more of the best Folk Music Classics here: Subscribe to Vintage Music Hub for more: #TheJubalaires #ThePreacherAndTheBear #VintageMusic #ClassicFolkMusic
