Momma take the pillow from under my head, now

Allelu

Said take the pillow from under my head

Allelu

Now, take the pillow from under my head

Jesus's gonna make up my dyin' bed

Then you'll need that true religion

Allelu

Doctor, doctor, lookin' sad

Allelu

Well, doctor, doctor said lookin' sad

Allelu

And doctor, doctor now lookin' sad

"Strangest case I ever had"

Then you'll need that true religion

Allelu

Crossin' Jordan, I need not fear

Allelu

Well, crossin' Jordan, I need not fear

Allelu

Said, crossin' Jordan, I need not fear

Jesus' gonna be the engineer

Then you'll need that true religion

Allelu

Momma take the pillow from under my head, now

Allelu

Said take the pillow from under my head

Allelu

Well, take the pillow from under my head

Jesus's gonna make up my dyin' bed

Then you'll need that true religion

Allelu

And I cried, you'll need that true religion

Allelu
