Smokin Bacon

I was chasing this rabbit across the railroad tracks;
Someone failed to tell me that he's not comin back;
Are ya gonna eat them raisins;
I'd be mortified picture this in a window you standing here;
with your hands up in the air sayN;
I got apple juice, but my oranges are loose;
I'm just craving;
Smokin bacon
What ya want me to do
Repent heathen;
before you stop breathing;
I'm not afraid of you;
We all have a story let's get along;
Have you been reborn;
So we may live forever in glory;
(now for the rest of the story);
I don't know what you saying, I don't know why I'm here;
I don't think ya is playN, I think yall sincere;
Put down that bacon, pull up a chair;
Can't believe what I'm seein, must be born again;
I don't know why I'm here, but God has made me so I must be real;
Some people smoke roc;
Some smoke Mary Jane;
But I will not, do this thang, I reframe...
Some people forever the bottle run turn it up, turn it down;
But I'm here to tell you I'm gonna keep on praising HIM
Smokin bacon
What ya want me to do
Repent heathen;
before you stop breathing;
I'm not afraid of you;
We all have a story let's get along;
Have you been reborn;
So we may live forever in glory;
Smokin bacon
Not least no cured ham
No pig or barbecue just a mere man;
I'd better repent of my sins turn around be born again;
Or I may wind up burning in Hell;
I sho nuff now gonna start praisN the all the great King I AM
Smokin bacon
What ya want me to do;
Repent heathen
I'm not afraid of you
We all have a story, let's get along, Let's get through;
So we may live forever in glory;
Now that you heard my story;
What ya gonna do?
Now I am hungry....
