In This World I’ve Tried Most Everything,
And I’m Happy Now To Say
There Is Nothing Like Religion In The
Good Old-Fashioned Way;
I Am Walking In The Old-Time Way,
And I Want The
World To Know That I Would Rather Be An
Old-Time Christian Than Anything I Know.
I Would Rather Be An Old-Time Christian
Than Anything I Know.
There’s Nothing Like An Old-Time Christian
With A Christian Love To Show;
I’m Walking In The Grand Old Highway,
And I’m Telling Everywhere I Go,
That I Would Rather Be An Old-Time Christian
Than Anything I Know.
There Are Many Things I’d Like To Be
As My Journey I Pursue, I Have Longed
To Be A Leader Like A Mortal Man Would Do;
I Would Like To Be A Millionaire,
With A Million To Bestow,
But I Would Rather Be An Old-Time Christian
Than Anything I Know.
All The World Is Bright Since I Got Right.
Now I Sing And Pray And Shout,
All My Burdens Have Been Lifted
Since The Saviour Brought Me Out;
I Will Tell The World Both Far And Near
As I Travel Here Below.
That I Would Rather Be An Old-Time Christian
Than Anything I Know.
