[E]
I was just a youngin' bouncin' on my mama's knee
She [A] said, there's only one thing that set your soul [Em] free
Wasn't no easy street where I come [E] from
There [C] wasn't no sleep until the work [E] was done
My mama was a preacher by the fires of hell
If you wanna drink the water, you gotta go to the well
The cornerstone church tryin' to curse my soul
But [D] the good Lord gave me that rock and roll
My

[Eb] was a preacher by the fires of hell
She said, there's only one

She said, there's only one thing that set your soul free
Wasn't no easy street where I come from
There wasn't no sleep until the work was done
My mama was a preacher by the fires of hell
My mama was a preacher by the [Em] fires of hell
