God Don’t Like It Lyrics by Blind Willie McTell

Ultimate Blues Collection

1935

[Verse 1]
Some say they done cut whiskey out
But you can have a little wine
Most everybody gets on a drunk
By drinking this old moonshine
[Chorus]
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
[Verse 2]
Some of our members gets on a drunk
Just to speak their sober minds
And when they raise the Devil
Lord, they put all the blame on shine
[Chorus]
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
[Verse 3]
Some of our preachers just as bad as the members
About this old moonshine
They're trying to make love with every woman they meet
Just a buyin' and drinkin' shine
[Chorus]
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
[Verse 4]
Then some of our children got naked
And the mothers never go
But the father makes that money by the roll
For the women know their shine is gold
[Chorus]
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
[Verse 5]
They said this yellow corn
Makes the best kind of shine
They'd better turn a-that corn to bread
And stop that making shine
[Chorus]
For God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
[Verse 6]
I know you don't like this song
Just because I speak my mind
But I'll sing this song a-just as much as I please
Because I don't drink shine
[Chorus]
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
Now God don't like it and (I don't either)
It's scandalous and a shame
