Johnny Cash - Billy And Rex And Oral And Bob lyrics

Ordained for proclaimin' the gospel of Jesus
The great super preachers go crusadin' on
And the people all gather
In big congregations
They hear of the Saviour who came to atone
And they kneel at the altar
And they walk away happy
Then the devil starts gossip
About money and sex
Makin' it hard on the good men of God
Like Billy and Bob and Oral and Rex
Old Billy Sunday is dead and gone
Young Jim Robertson's comin' on strong
And Billy and Rex and Oral and Bob are
Talkin' about Jesus and doin' their job

Millions of people tune in Katherine Coolman
And see her face shine
With an unearthly light
Garner Ted warns of the world of tomorrow
But they criticized him and the reverend died
'Cause the devil is after
The great super preachers
He'd try to discredit the gospel they bring
But Billy and Rex and Oral and Bob hold
To their commitment to Jesus the King
Old Billy Sunday is dead and gone young
Tommy Barnett is comin' on strong
And Billy and Rex and Oral and Rex are
Talkin' about Jesus and doin' their job
Old Billy Sunday is dead and gone young
Jimmy Snow is comin' on strong
And Billy and Rex and Oral and Bob are
Talkin' about Jesus and doin' their job
