Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, oh!
-
Not Synced
Where the June bugs danced
And the lemonade flowed
-
Not Synced
And we prayed and we sang 'til
The sun sank low
-
Not Synced
Laughing with our sisters and brothers.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, hey!
-
Not Synced
Where you knew you were loved
And you wanted to stay,
-
Not Synced
Though the summer heat
Was like judgment day,
-
Not Synced
We always enjoyed each other.
-
Not Synced
Well, we went to the river
And some were baptized,
-
Not Synced
We clapped our hands and testified
-
Not Synced
Then we passed around the chicken
And the buttermilk pie
-
Not Synced
And nothing ever tasted better.
-
Not Synced
Then the kids played ball
And the babies just played
-
Not Synced
And the old men napped
Out under the shade
-
Not Synced
And the women picked flowers
And sipped lemonade
-
Not Synced
And sat around talkin' together.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, oh!
-
Not Synced
Where the June bugs danced
And the lemonade flowed
-
Not Synced
And we prayed and we sang 'til
The sun sank low
-
Not Synced
Laughing with our sisters and brothers.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, hey!
-
Not Synced
Where you knew you were loved
And you wanted to stay,
-
Not Synced
Though the summer heat
Was like judgment day,
-
Not Synced
We always enjoyed each other.
-
Not Synced
Well I look back now
And I wish that I could
-
Not Synced
Go back to the time
When life was good,
-
Not Synced
When everybody lived
The way that they should
-
Not Synced
At least that's the way I recall.
-
Not Synced
We loved our God with all of our might
-
Not Synced
And everybody knew
The wrong from the right,
-
Not Synced
And we worked all day
And slept all night
-
Not Synced
And we were proud and stood tall.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, oh!
-
Not Synced
Where the June bugs danced
And the lemonade flowed
-
Not Synced
And we prayed and we sang 'til
The sun sank low
-
Not Synced
Laughing with our sisters and brothers.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle, hey!
-
Not Synced
Where you knew you were loved
And you wanted to stay,
-
Not Synced
Though the summer heat
Was like judgment day,
-
Not Synced
We always enjoyed each other.
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle!
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle!
-
Not Synced
Down by the tabernacle!
