Well, I was headed home from work, when my car broke down I started into walkin', when I heard a joyful sound It was gospel music Comin' from a church house down the street (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) Yeah gospel music put a little spring down in my feet (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) I ran right up the steps, poked my head in the door It sounded so good, man, I had to have some more Of that good gospel music That the choir did sing (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) Yeah that gospel music sure made my joy bell ring (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) I fell down on my knees, I felt a rumble in my soul
I thought it was a thunder bolt, it felt like rock'n'roll But it was gospel music Man that choir did rave (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) Yeah gospel music, that's how my soul got saved (Hallelujah brother, hallelujah man) Well, I got my car repaired and off to work I go And you can hear it while I'm drivin' on my radio I play that gospel music Sounds so good to me (Hallelujah brother, Hallelujah man) That gospel music will surely set your troubles free (Hallelujah brother hallelujah man) (Hallelujah brother hallelujah man)(Hallelujah brother hallelujah man)(Hallelujah brother hallelujah man)
