Lyrics
Hmm (c'mon, Bishop)
Hmm-hmm-hmm, yeah (yeah)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (listen)
(Let it go, let it go)
My name Bishop Bullwinkle
I got the First Church of Nothing-But-The-Truth (what you say?)
Deacon Kyle, Deacon George, Deacon Clay, open the door, let 'em in, turn 'em loose (c'mon!)
First I gonna thank God for them blood running warm in my veins (yeah)
I thank God for my life, health and strength, I got a sound mind, I'm not insane (come on)
I ain't gonna preach too long
Ain't gonna take this service too far
My sermon's in the morning
Hell to the naw, naw, naw, come on, come on
Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (listen)
Sister Ella, Sister Ruth, make sure that everybody get a seat (c'mon, y'all)
Sister Lilly may go back in the kitchen
'Cause she when it get through, I need to eat (I mustn't)
Fix me collard greens and cornbread and rice
Chicken breast, ox tails on the side (that's what I'm talkin' 'bout)
Deacon Underwood, get my Bentley ready
'Cause when it get through, I need a ride (c'mon!)
Doctor West, count the money, count the money
Come back and tell us what you raised (well, had to find another, did you?)
I got some people, they looking for some blessings
First God gotta get the praise (c'mon, y'all)
See, there's an old saying
When the praises go up, you get the blessing coming down
I got some peoples in the church
God almighty look at 'em, they messing around, c'mon, c'mon
Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (listen)
I got peoples in the church smokin' weed, drinkin' whiskey
They drinkin' a lot of gin (what you say?)
I got the preacher with the night prayer leading
Talking about, "Can I get a amen?" (c'mon)
Early Sunday morning, 'bout a quarter and a half past the ten (yeah)
I got some people, they comin' off the street
God almighty look at 'em, they strollin' in (they need help)
They layin' at the altar
They confessin' their sins they've sinned, yeah (come my way)
Time you see 'em Monday morning, they doing the same thing again (hypocrite, hypocrite)
Hell nawmorning, to the naw, naw, naw (hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (listen)
Got kids dropping out of school
Talking about they don't want to learn
Yet they're standing on the corner rolling blunts
Talking about, come on, let's burn (y'all better get back to school)
I got kids walking up and down the street
Pants hanging down around their knees (pull them pants up)
Talking about that they're looking for a job
When I see 'em jitter bug, I say please
See all they ever talk about, brag about
Who got the biggest and the baddest gun
Time they see the copper with the bubble top
They drop the gun, they want to run (put them guns down)
And now the sheriff got 'em locked up, hah
They sitting in the county jail (it's a shame)
I heard their mama, she was crying all night
She can't get no money for the bail (c'mon)
And now they're mad with the homeboys
'Cause they didn't put no money in the commissary (free to go, naw)
Be glad you're in the jail, brother man
You were sure headed for the cemetery (c'mon, wait)
There's an old saying
That a hard head make a soft behind (yeah)
Well, since you did the crime, go on and do the time
Stop the baby crying, come on, come on
Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (listen)
When people talk about ya
All you gotta do is let 'em talk much as they please (that what they gon' do, y'all)
'Cause all you gotta do is get down on your knees (tell the Lord about it)
You tell God about it and I guarantee He will never leave you alone (yeah)
All you gotta do is tell the Devil, "Hell naw, won't you leave me 'lone?" (devil, leave)
Hell naw (come on, wait)
To the naw, naw, naw (come on, come on)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw
Hell naw-naw, to the naw-naw, to the naw-naw, naw-naw
To the naw-naw, to the naw-naw, hell to the naw-naw, hah
To the naw-naw, naw, naw, hell to the naw
Naw, naw, naw, naw, hell to the naw-naw
