Loading...

[verse]
a-way down south where i was born
in the land of cotton, sugar cane, and corn
ev’rybody goes to church on sunday morn’ (on sunday morn’)
(oh, since you) you all know that the good book say
“you must keep holy on the sabbath day”
now if you don’t, you’ll go where it’s real warm
(and sir, i don’t want to go there, lord)
in the church the other day
i heard parson john say:

[chorus]
(well?) brothers, it’s a shame to gamble on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
ain’t a shame to gamble on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
(ain’t it a shame to gamble on sunday)
when you got monday, tuesday, wednesday
thursday, friday, sat-rday too
ain’t it a shame?

[chorus]
sister, it’s a shame to shimmy on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
ain’t a shame to shimmy on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
(ain’t it a shame to shimmy on sunday)
when you got monday, tuesday, wednesday
thursday, friday, sat-rday too
ain’t it a shame?

[chorus]
brothers, it’s a shame to steal chickens on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
ain’t a shame to steal chickens on sunday
ain’t it a shame? (lord, lord)
(ain’t it a shame to steal chickens on sunday)
when you got monday, tuesday, wednesday
thursday, friday, sat-rday too
ain’t it a shame?
ain’t it a shame?
a shame!
