Backwoods Preacher Man - Listener

Way down in the country

Back in the Arkansas woods

There’s a man there working for Jesus

Tryin' to do some good

He don’t have no fancy building

Just a big ol' raggin' tent

And the people who come to see him

Believe he was heaven sent

Backwoods preacher man

Doin' the best he can

Backwoods preacher man

Tryin' to give the Lord a hand

When you hear him talk about Jesus

You know they’re the best of friends

Just one look and you can tell

He will give the devil hell

And help you wash away your sins

Same backwoods preacher man

Doin' the best he can

Backwoods preacher man

Tryin' to give the Lord a hand

Let me tell everybody

Tremble down to his shoes

When you hear that backwoods preacher

Singin' those gospel blues

Backwoods preacher man

Doin' the best he can

Backwoods preacher man

Tryin' to give the Lord a hand

Same backwoods preacher man

Doin' the best he can

Backwoods preacher man

Tryin' to give the Lord a hand

Backwoods preacher man
