grandpa jones - methodist pie lyrics

[verse 1]
i went down to camp meeting just the other afternoon
just to hear ’em dance and sing
tell each other how to love one another
and to make the hallelujahs ring
there was old brother daniel and brother ebeneezer
uncle rufus and his lame gal sue
aunt polly and melinda and old mother bender
well i never seen a happier crew

[verse 2]
well they all go there for to have a good time
and to eat their grub so sly
have applesauce b+tter with sugar in the gourd
and a great big methodist pie
well you ought to hear ’em ringing when they all get to singin’
that good old bye and bye
see jimmy mcgee in the top of a tree
saying how is this for high

[chorus]
oh chill’un i believe
oh little chill’un i believe
oh little chill’un i believe
i’s a methodist till i die
i’s a methodist a methodist it is my belief
i’s a methodist till i die
when old grim death come a+knocking at the door
i’s a methodist till i die
[verse 3]
then they catch a holda hands and dance around a ring
keep a’singin’ all the while
you’d think it was a cyclone a’coming through the air
you could hear ’em shout a half a mile
then the bell rings loud and the great big crowd
breaks ranks and up they fly
while i take aboard on the sugar in the gourd
and i clean up the methodist pie
