Sweet Home, Maranatha

Parody of "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynard Skynard

Parody Lyrics by Jeff James (the Paro-dud)

World will be a burning
He'll carry me home to be with Him.
Singing songs about the new land.
I'm with God's family once again, and He said we won't sin, yeah.

I've heard many sung things about it.
I heard no evil could be found.
This globe, it's not worth rememb'rin'.
No blubberin', don't need to pout.

CHORUS:
Sweet home, maranatha, when my time here is through.
Sweet home, maranatha. Lord, I'm coming home to you.

The worthy Lamb, He loves unlovely ones (ooh, ooh, ooh).
Now we will bid all tears adieu.
The pearly gates call out to me.
Walk upon those streets with you, to tell the truth.

Chorus

No fuss we'll show. We won't be paupers,
And He has shown He'll save a soul like you. (yes, He do!)
Lord, You give me, oh, so much.
He lifts me up when my time is due. How about you?

Chorus repeat

Well, they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good,
They'll stone ya just a-like Judas said they would.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home.
Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone.
But I would not feel so all up and fried,
Everybody get crucified.

Well, they'll stone ya when you're walkin' with the Lord
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to keep up with FORD.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' on the water.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' to the slaughter.
But I would not feel all up and tied,
Everybody must get crucified.

They'll stone ya when you're at the Last Supper table.
They'll stone ya as if you were Caine and Abel.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' Wilbury's Luck.
They'll stone ya and then they'll say, "WTF???."
Tell ya what, I would not feel like the Runaway Bride,
Everybody must get crucified.

Well, they'll stone you and say that it's the end.
Then they'll stone you and then they'll come back again.
They'll stone you when you're riding in your car.
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.

You know, if you Took the subject of a lyric, and changed it with "jesus, lord, god, etc", and change adjetives with "praising, glorifing, etc, you can make a christian song out of anything.

Crazy train for example, which I retitled "Praise his name"

"Praise the lord...ha ha ha ha,
Real nice, nice, nice nice....

Praise him,
For he is the lord,
Millions of people,
Want to praise him some more.

Maybe,
It's not late,
To convert some heathens,
And save the depraved.

The people keep on sinning,
Satan is too blame,
I'm going to the church to praise his name.

Let's go...

What was the condition,
That you were reborn,
Was it the sins from your father,
The sin when your born,

Ah it's crazy,
Or maybe it's swell,
To praise him right now,
Or go burn in hell...

The choir keeps on singing,
the songs that sound the same,
I'm going to the church to praise his name.

I know that things are going wrong for me...
You got to listen to his words, Yeah...

[guitar solo in major tonality]

It's time to stand up now,
And sing in the church,
for the one who is sinless,
Since the day of his birth...

Jesus,
I name I can love,
He did in tomb,
And then rose above...

No more life of sinning,
No more Blaspheming....
I'm going to the church to praise his name."

Thanks.

You know, the same has happened in reverse, where a perverted song was made into a jesus song.

Originally, the Doobie Brothers wrote a song called "Pussy is just Alright", to go against gay's, but eventually, was edited due to fear of GLAAD's potential Retaliation...

Think about it.
