He Calls That Religion Trk 20 3: 30
 The Mississippi Sheiks
 Sam Chatmon - bass guitar, (brother) Lonnie Chatmon - fiddle
 (brother) Bo 'Carter' - guitar, Walter Vinson - guitar
 Well, the preacher used to preach
 To try to stay atoned
 But now he's preachin'
 Just to buy jellyroll
 Well, he calls that religion
 Yes, he calls that religion
 Well, he calls that religion
 But I know he's goin' to hell when he dies
 It was at a church last night
 Had desire to be
 The old preacher
 Was tryin' to take my wife from me
 Oh, he call that religion
 Yes, he call that religion
 Well, he called that religion
 I know he's goin' to hell when he dies
 Preacher always
 He was a mighty true man
 He gives his commence
 And he couldn't understand
 Well, he calls that religion
 Yes, he called that religion
 Well, he called that religion
 I know he goin' to hell when he dies
 (guitar & fiddle)
 'Oh yes, he calls that religion'
 He will swear he's keepin'
 God's command
 Have women fussin' 'n fightin'
 All over land
 And then he call that religion
 Well, he calls that religion
 Well, he called that religion
 But I know he's goin' to hell when he dies
 Therein the people
 Stopped goin' to church
 They know that preacher
 Was tryin-a do too much
 But still he called that religion
 Still, he called that religion
 Well, he called that religion
 But I know he's goin' to hell when he dies
 Old Deacon Jones
 He was a preachin' King
 They caught him 'round the house
 Tryin-a shake that thing
 Oh, he called that religion
 Yes, he called that religion
 Well, he called that religion
 But I know he goin' to hell when he dies
 'Oh yeah, he calls that religion'.
