Jimmy Bell

Jimmy Bell's in town
Oh Lord, he's walkin' around
He's got greenbacks enough, sweet babe
To make a man a suit
Make a man a suit, make a man a suit
He's got greenbacks, enough, sweet babe
Make a man a suit

Jimmy Bell told the sisters
"Oh, you need not shout
If you don't pay your monthly fees
I'm gonna turn you out
Gonna turn you out, gonna turn you out
If you don't pay your monthly fee
Gonna turn you out

Jimmy Bell in the pulpit
The Bible in his hand
Oh them sisters sitting back in the corner cryin'
"Jimmy Bell my man
Jimmy Bell my man, Jimmy Bell my man."
Oh them sisters sitting back in the corner cryin'
"Jimmy Bell my man."

Jimmy Bell told the sexton
"Go and tone the bell
'Cause some of these old members here
Sure is going to hell
Sure is going to hell, sure is going to hell
'Cause some of these old members here
Sure is going to hell."

Jimmy Bell told his wife
Told his wife that night
"If the times don't get no better here
Up the road I'm goin'
Up the road I'm goin', up the road I'm going
If the times don't get no better here
Up the road I'm goin'."
