_ Way down in the country, _ _ back in the Arkansas roof, _
There's a man that's working for Jesus, _ [D] trying to do [E] some [Em] good.
He don't have no fancy building, _ just a big old ragged tent, _
And the people come to see him, _ [D] believe [A] he was heaven [Em] sent. _ _
_ [D] _ Backwards preacher [Em] man, _ _ [D] doing the best [E] he can, _
_ [A] _ Backwards [E] preacher man, _ [B] trying to give the [Em] Lord a hand.
_ _ _ [A] _ When [E] you hear him talk about Jesus, _ you know they're [Em] the best of friends.
Just one look and you can tell [D] he would give the devil hell,
[A] And help you wash away [E] your sin.
