the kingsmen (christian) - excuses lyrics

[chorus]
excuses, excuses
you’ll hear them every day
now the devil he’ll supply them
if from church you stay away
when people come to know the lord
the devil always loses
so to keep them folks away from church
he offers them excuses

[verse 1]
in the summer it’s too hot
and in the winter it’s too cold
in the spring time when the weather’s just right
you find some place else to go
well it’s up to the mountains or down to the bеach
or to visit some old friend
or just to stay home and kinda rеlax
and hope that some of the kin folks will start dropping in

[verse 2]
well the church benches are too hard
and that choir sings way too loud
boy you know how nervous you get
when you’re sitting in a great big crowd
the doctor told you “now you better watch them crowds
they’ll set you back”
but you go to that old ball game
because you say it helps you to relax
[verse 3]
well a headache sunday morning
and a backache sunday night
but by work time monday morning
you’re feeling quite alright
while one of the children has a cold
pneumonia do you suppose?
why the whole family had to stay home
just to blow that poor kid’s nose

[chorus]

[verse 4]
well the preacher he’s too young
and maybe he’s too old
the sermons they’re not hard enough
and maybe they’re too bold
his voice is much too quiet+like
sometimes he gets too loud
he needs to have more dignity
or else he’s way too proud

[verse 5]
well the sermons they’re too long
and maybe they’re too short
he ought to preach the word with dignity
instead of stomp and snort
well that preacher we’ve got must be
the world’s most stuck up man
well one of the lady’s told me the other day
well he didn’t even shake my hand
[chorus]

[verse 5]

[chorus]
