    Saints and sinners, come one, come all

    I'm callin' sinners right to me'
    When ol' satan grabs your soul
    When he grabs you
    It takes the lord's true word to break his hold,
    Trouble nabs you
    So i say, 'you got to listen mostly to me.
    You got to listen closely.'

    'watch your step 'n how you act
    Watch what you do
    Mister scratch is here, an' that's a fact
    He wants you too
    If anyone can stop him, i can
    That's why i'm the preacher man'

    Y' dodge that devil in his fine fancy clothes
    (yes!)
    Come git aboard
    (we still got space)

    Save your soul while y'can
