Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
Ev'rybody thought he was through
Then he made a little song about Whatcha Gonna Do
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
He's swingin' now so he ain't gonna preach no mo'
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
All the sisters and brothers thought he was dead
Then he wrote a little song by the name of Oh Red
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
He's swingin' now so he ain't gonna preach no mo'
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
He made a trip down to New Orleans
Then he wrote that song Weed-Smoker's Dreams
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
He's swingin' now so he ain't gonna preach no mo'
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
Ever'body knew his preachin' was grand
Then he wrote another blues about Move Your Hand
Hallelujah Joe (Hallelujah Joe)
Ain't preachin' no mo' (ain't preachin' no mo')
That cat is swingin' now so he ain't gonna preach no mo'
