    Getting ready for the big revival

    Getting ready for the big revival
    Everybody get in the van
    There's a little church on eagle mountain
    It's called the blood of the blessed land
    If your faith ain't strong enough child
    You might wind up dead
    Praise the Lord and pass me a copperhead

    Now Reverend Jones he struts some dances
    While the guitar plays amazing grace
    He testifies in tongues of fire
    With tears of joy running down his face
    He ain't sure, and we ain't sure
    Exactly what he said
    But praise the Lord and pass me a copperhead

    You won't find many hypocrites
    That will take the chance on getting bit
    But a true believer can survive
    Rattlesnakes and cyanide

    Now I'll bring you home that deadly viper
    Keep the holy spirit in your mind
    You might lose your concentration
    That serpent's surely bound to strike
    Either way you won't forget
    The first time that you said
    Praise the Lord and pass me a copperhead
    Praise the Lord and pass me a copperhead Writer/s: DENNIS LINDE
