Chicken On The Ground

Verse 1: There's an old familiar hillside overlooking Emhouse,Texas Where i left some childhood memories layin' round I can almost hear the singing,i can still remember praying At them old campground meetings eatin' chicken on the ground With them hallelujahs ringin',everybody shoutin',singin' Give me that old time religion,Jesus loves me,this i know When life was finger-lickin' good and God lived in our neighborhood At them old campground meetin's eatin' chicken on the ground Verse 2: I can still remember feelin' all that happiness inside me When i praised the Lord and laid my burdens down But that chicken must have tasted better than the word of God 'Cause it went slippin' through my fingers and rollin' on the ground Chorus. Verse 3: I reckon everyone of us can call back or remember When the taste and smell of youth was all around And i reckon in our own way everyone of us is payin' now For eatin' chicken and not listenin' to old Parson Brown Chorus (x3).
