The Deacon Moves in Lyrics

The Deacon Moves In - Esther Phillips

Written by:Rose Marks/William Ward

Look out fat deacon

 

Do ya really think about we kind

 

Well now sister pigeon

 

If you really want that sorta religion

You better do what I say and see the thing my way

 

Your eyes are glowing

That's not true baby

I think I really oughta be going

 

You mustn't fret

 

I'm a gonna make you feel the spirit

Just send your heart to me and sit upon my knee

 

Should I start praying

No no I think I didn't delay

 

What are you saying

Goodbye baby

It's much much much too late

 

Please stop squeezin' my hand

 

Well you do not understand

That deacon yeah deacon is movin' in

 

Let me go let me go let me go let me go mister

Yeah take some take some take some take some sister

 

If you kiss me once again

 

I'm gonna stick you with this pin

Well go ahead and stick me 'cause

The deacon is movin' in

Jump to this yeah jump yeah

 

She get those moves right

It all in baby

 

Everybody goes along with the deacon

 

That was a deacon tone

 

Yeah jump to this

 

The meetin' is downstairs

 

Want that true religion

Yes baby you you you's just a tender pigeon

 

Hand me down that gin

 

And kiss me once again

Yes kiss baby

 

The deacon deacon is movin' in
