A quiet little town with happy go people gatherin' after church with a little steeple Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday The week is over and the work is through going to church like the good folks do Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday This God's land and we're God's people going to the church with a little steeple Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday The dogwood's blooming and the hills are green The mockingbird is singing while the church bells ring Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday The sermon is over and we all gather round A lot of hand shaking and dinner on the ground Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday The week is over and this the day we all go to church and give him pray Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday I miss a little church with a little ole steeple The old hometown and the kind hearted people Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday The happiest hours that I've ever known I spent 'em in the church with the folks back home Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday This God's land and we're God's people going to the church with a little steeple Singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday singing on a Sunday
