Snake Box on the Altar

Snake box©Cw Johnson

There’s a little white church on the road side.
Halfway down route one.
Folks start preach’in that fire & brimstone,
People start speak’in in tongues.
(chorus)
There’s a snake box on the altar.
There’s trouble in the south.
A snake box on the altar.
Honey shut your mouth.
Bible says Satan was a big ‘old rattler,
Living in the tree of life.
A smooth talking ,silver tongue devil,
That turned out Adams wife.
(chorus)
There’s a snake box on the altar.
There’s trouble in the south.
A snake box on the altar.
Honey shut your mouth.
There’s folks around here going hungry.
Folks sleeping out in the cold.
Walking around like a barefoot zombie,
Doing just what there told.
There’s a snake box on the altar.
There’s trouble in the south.
A snake box on the altar.
Honey shut your mouth.
Snake box on the altar.
Trouble in the south.
Shot glass in the pulpit.
Honey hush your mouth.
There’s a little white church on the road side.
Halfway down route one.
Folks start preach’in that fire & brimstone,
People start speak’in in tongues.
