St. Lenox That Old Time Religion Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The angel spoke of John the Baptist
Just this morning, yeah I see
Gabriel in lights and other fine
Visions in the air
Like the prophet said, need a little less
Conversation in my life
A little more action, satisafction, yeah
A little more matter of fact

[Chorus]
Gimme some of that old time religion
Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of that sweet and mystic vision
Need some of that inspiration

Gimme some of that old time religion
Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of your ancient mystic wisdom
Need some of your mystery

[Verse 2]
And I gotta good friend, says he's
Gonna blow up the state of New Jersey
'cause he sees crimson luminous visions
And he hears voices from the rafters

Like the prophet said
You gotta be bad, you gotta be cool
You gotta be bold, you
Gotta be wise, and you gotta be tough
'til the kindom come

[Chorus]
Gimme some of that old time religion Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of that sweet and mystic vision
Need some of that inspiration

Gimme some of that old time religion
Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of your ancient mystic wisdom
Need some of your mystery

[Verse 3]
And I gotta good friend, gota a broad with
Demons hot on her heels and she sings
Spirits come to the end of days
And the devil's in all the details

Like the prophet said, need a little bit of
Sex and drugs and rock & roll, and
Celebrate and praise like it's the year
Nineteen-ninety-nine

[Chorus]
Gimme some of that old time religion
Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of that sweet and mystic vision
Need some of that inspiration

Gimme some of that old time religion
Old religion's good enough for me
Need some of your ancient mystic wisdom
Need some of your mystery
