Lyrics

The weather-worn preacher man
Turns his back against the rain
Preaching fire and brimstone
Out on the open plain

Collar up and head held high
He has three chords and the truth
In his hand a worn out Bible
And the scars of a misspent youth

They call him Reverend Rock and Roll
He plays country to ease your soul
And if your life gives you the blues
The Reverend has a song for you and it goes
La la la la la..........
Amen

So he takes out his old guitar
And says Lord now let us pray
To the congregation all around
You sure work in mysterious ways

They call him Reverend Rock and Roll
He plays country to ease your soul
And if your life gives you the blues
The Reverend has a song for you and it goes
La la la la la..........
Amen

Well I am no believer
Guess I worship me instead
But I swear I started doubting
When he turned to me and said
Would you be a frightened child
If God rolled up his sleeves
Would you stand there and turn to stone
Or get down on your bended knees

They call him Reverend Rock and Roll
He plays country to ease your soul
And if your life gives you the blues
The Reverend has a song for you and it goes
La la la la la..........
Amen

They call him Reverend Rock and Roll
He plays country to ease your soul
And if your life gives you the blues
The Reverend has a song for you and it goes
La la la la la..........
Amen

I said La la la la la..........
Amen
I said La la la la la..........
Amen
