Well I was born an original sinner.
I was borne from original sin.
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things Ive done
Thered be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you cant go wrong."
"but theres just one thing
That you must understand."
"you can fool with your brother -
But dont mess with a missionary man."

Dont mess with a missionary man.
Dont mess with a missionary man.

Well the missionary man
Hes got God on his side.
Hes got the saints and apostles
Backin up from behind.
Black eyed looks from those Bible books.
Hes a man with a mission
Got a serious mind.
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree.
The missionary man he was followin me.
He said "stop what youre doing."
"get down upon your knees."
"ive got a message for you that you better believe."

(chorus repeats...)
