Lyrics

When the Baptist Convention comes to town
When the Baptist Convention comes to town
On the seventh floor at the Hampton Inn
The carrying on it was a sin
When the Baptist convention comes to town

We Listened in the park to the choir
Listening in the park to the choir
The preacher gets up to talk
I wandered off when the singing stopped
We were listening in the park to the choir

You sound funny when you talk about love
He sounds funny talking about love
Do you use that same word for
Those men in El Salvador
You sound funny talking about love.

I close my eyes feel this waterfall
I closed my eyes feel this waterfall
I’m nobody just like everybody else
When I look for me I’m not myself
I close my eyes feel this waterfall

When the Baptist convention came to town
When the Baptist convention came to town
They argue what the Scriptures say
About the liberals in the Bible days
When the Baptist convention came to town
