This is a song about a very big, strong, black,
[E] sexy, Southern Baptist minister
who thinks that [A] he has his program all [D] together
[E] until he runs up against a lady [A] who shows him that he ain't got it together.
His name is Reverend [G] Dr.
[F#m] Lee.
[A] Reverend Lee, he went to [E] the water
and [D] he prayed to the [E] Lord
about [A] old Satan's daughter, yeah.
It seems in a dream, child,
while he [E] lay sleeping,
she [D] climbed in his [E] bed,
[B] starts rubbing [A] and weeping,
[A] oh, she was twisted and turning,
[Am] she was begging [E] and pleading,
[Em] loving [D]
and burning,
[E] [D] [A] panting and breathing,
[E] Reverend [Am] Lee, she said,
said, Lord [E] knows I love you, [Am] child,
I [D] would not even
[E] place [Am] God [A] above you.
Reverend Lee,
he lifted [E] his arms high,
said, [D] heavenly Father,
[E] take me [A] home to the sky.
He said, Lord, please don't test me,
not [E] down where she touched me,
oh, my mind [D] is so [E] hazy,
Lord, [Am] my body is hungry, oh, yeah.
[Em] God [A] rose up a loving [Cm] herb [E] of lightning,
he [D] seemed to be angry,
[B] oh, [Em]
[A] sure was [A] bright,
[D]
[A] grew louder,
[E] darkened condition,
just [D] then a [C] voice [B] said,
[B] God cannot [A] be petitioned,
just then the devil
[E] emerged
from the water,
and he said [D] in a dry [E] voice,
[A] your God [Am] will not [A] bother.
Reverend Lee
ran [G] screaming from [E] the water,
[A] he was [G] hotly [D] pursued [Em] by
[C#] oh, Satan's daughter,
Reverend [F#] Lee, she said,
[Em] Reverend Lee, [D] Reverend
[Em] Lee,
[Am] [D] Reverend Lee, [Em] oh, do it to me,
