| lyric | 1. Longhaired preachers come out ev'ry night,
And they’ll tell yoou what’s wrong and what’s right
When you ask them for something to eat;
They will answer in voices so sweet:
Chorus:
You will eat bye and bye
When you ‘ve learned how to cook and fry,
Chop some wood, do some good,
And you’ll eat in the sweet bye and bye.
2. 0 the starvation army they play,
And they sing and they clap and they pray,
Till they get all your coin on the drum,
Then they’ll tell you when you’re on the bum.
3. If you fight hard for children and wife
Try to get something good in this life
You will hear from each preacher you meet,
It is better to pray than to eat.
4. Working men of all countries, unite,
Side by side we for freedom will light,
When the world and its wealth we have gained
To the grafter we’ll sing this refrain: |
