[00:00:06] Come along get you ready Wear your bran' bran' new gown

[00:00:15] In that good good old town

[00:00:18] Where you knowded everybody

[00:00:21] And they all knowded you

[00:00:24] And you've got a rabbit's foot

[00:00:26] To keep away de hoo-doo

[00:00:30] When you hear that the preaching does begin

[00:00:36] Bend down low for to drive away your sin

[00:00:41] And when you gets religion

[00:00:44] You want to shout and sing

[00:00:47] There'll be a hot time in the

[00:01:03] You must sing

[00:01:05] And when the verse am through
