[Verse 1]
If you want your soul set free
Lift your voice and sing with me
(Scat Singing)
If the Devil grabs your hand
Here's one thing that he can't stand
(Scat Singing)
[Pre-Chorus]
Walkin' down to the river, singin' a hallelujah song, Oh Lord!
Up jumps the Devil before you, just keep ploddin' along!
[Refrain]
Tell old Satan how you feel
Get the Devil off your heel
(Scat Singing)
[Post-Chorus]
Keep your spirit way up high
Look up to the sky!
Stand up and shout
"Hallelujah! Oh-oh!"
"Hallelujah! Oh-oh!"
[Verse 2]
If that old Devil should grab your hand
Here's one thing that he can't stand
Shout sister, Shout sister, Shout!
(Oh Lord!) Shout! (Oh Lord!)
[Verse 3]
(Scat Singing)
Oh shout! Oh shout! Oh!
Come on down, just a little bit joy!
(Scat Singing)
Oh shout! Oh shout sister!
(Scat Singing)
[Outro]
Just tell old Satan how you feel
Get that old Devil right off your heel
Shout sister, Shout sister, Shout!
(Oh Lord!) Shout! (Oh Lord!)
(Humming)
