Do You Call That Religion

Well the preacher in his church house
All reared back in his chair
But when you tell him about his duty
He'll say that 5 he don't 1 care

Chorus
Do you call that religion, oh no
Do you call that religion, 5 no child 1 no
Do you call that religion, oh no
I declare ain't 5 that a 1 shame

You claim that you've been converted
Why don't you stop telling lies
Quit drinkin' your beer and your whiskey
And live a more different life

Last Sunday while the preacher was a-preachin'
Lord, you all began to shout
When he asked for a little collection
You had your mouth poked out
