I might catch some perch...yeah... Ah...keep it rollin' here... Take you on a lurch On a little date to church Take you and her On a, a little date to church La,la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la Gimme one more La, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la Take your honor fast I'm going to a little bit mass Come along, it can't hurt We're on a, a little date to church C'mon sing! La, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la One more La, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la Let me tell you now... Old Satan's looking out for you He'll get you by the night's through Oh, we haven't much time alive Take me down the hall... Sitting in a pew Well ain't we the chosen few Might not help, but it can't hurt On a, a little date to church La, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la La, la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la Deliver us, Reverend What's that? On a little date to church
