This song has an interesting history for me. Years ago (MANY) I had a friend who was of the Pentecostal faith. I'd never been much for organized religion, so I wasn't a frequent churchgoer. However, my friend would manage to rope me into going to church with him about once a year or so (I was baptized a Catholic, and so I was far removed from the Pentecostal church). On this one occasion, they had a small bandstand set up and sang their church songs with music accompaniment. I fooled around with the guitar a little and my "friend" told them I could sing - so they urged me on until I had no choice. The only problem was, I didn't know any church songs. I said. " I only know one song that even mentions religion." They replied, "WELL DO IT!!!" I guess I don't have to reveal which song I did. It involved drinking - but not sacramental wine, if you catch my drift.... They were nice about it - and quite cordial. Or maybe they just had their rakes and torches locked up. Having talent isn't always a good thing.

Well, the Pentecostals are a welcoming breed, for the most part, and all of those I ever knew had a few cards missing from their deck, anyway - so who knows what they actually found "entertaining" and whether or not they even recognized the irony of the song with the surroundings. That isn't to say that all Pentecostals have a screw loose - just the ones I've met (not a lot, but enough to consider stereotyping).

Actually, I think I would have to agree with you. My friend ( a very good friend in spite of his family attributes of being borderline inbreds) was very religious - however, just before he passed on, the very last email he ever sent me was of a woman doing a striptease (graphic). I still have it to remember him by.

Well, well. I have a confession to make. When I was young man doing what young men do I guess, my mother would often (always) give me a hard go of it when primping to go out. She would confront me each time and each time I would start singing this song “The lord knows I’m drinking and running around”. Things always got worse when I did. Wish she was here today.
