(C)Old Joe Clark was a preacher-man
He preached all over the plain
The highest text he ever took

There's a (Dm)lotta good things goin' (F)down
With a (Bb)little bit of luck and a (Am)couple of bucks
You could (G)be down there when the (C)Glory rolls
(F)Wake up brother, there's a (Am)new day coming
And it (Dm)hasn't got time to (F)stop
If'n (Bb)you got the bread, you could (Am)change your head
You could (G)be down there when the (Am)Glory rolls(Dm)(G)

Old Joe Clark was a preacher-man
He preached all over the plain
The highest text he ever took
Was a-High, Low, Jack, and a-Game.

Well, he came down to my house
And showed me all of his cards
He whispered low in his gambler's voice
It's reallly not too hard
