Once in a while I stumble across a song whilst looking for something else on youtube ( I was looking for a version of 'Pie in the sky' as per Dermot's thread) from a singer I should have 'found' earlier, often just a little 'before my time'.

So for those who 'get it' and who are interested in the US presidential candidates contest, this may amuse.

Incidentally, on a not unrelated topic ( music/the US ....and trains, I love trains!) , if you didn't get to watch Billy Connolly on "Billy Connolly's Tracks Across America" recently it's worth watching.

I have suffered more TV over the last few weeks than enough...so a rare little programme that held my interest was welcome :-)

Long-haired preachers come out every night
Try to tell you what's wrong and what's right
But when you ask how about something to eat
They will tell you in voices so sweet

You will eat bye and bye
In that glorious land above the sky
Work and pray, live on hay
You'll get pie in the sky when you die

And the starvation army they played
And they sang and they clapped and they prayed
Till they've got all your coins on the drum
Then they'll tell you when your on the bum

You will eat bye and bye
In that glorious land above the sky
Work and pray, live on hay
You'll get pie in the sky when you die

Holy Rollers and Jumpers come out
And they roll and they jump and they shout
Give your money to Jesus they say
And you will eat on that glorious day

You will eat bye and bye
In that glorious land above the sky
Work and pray, live on hay
You'll get pie in the sky when you die

Working people of all countries unite
Side by side we for freedom shall fight
Then this world and it's wealth we have gained
To the grafters we'll sing this refrain

You will eat, bye and bye
When you've learned how to cook and how to fry
Chop some wood do you good
And you'll eat in the sweet bye and bye
