Church Lyrics by Dave Hollister

Witness Protection

2008

[Intro]
Mmm, said alright
Help me sing my song
Oh, alright
It sounds real good, y'all
Yeah
Listen, y'all, mmm

Verse 1
I stopped going to church for a long time
'Cause I've seen a lot of things
So many things that make me never wanna go to church again, mmm
But my mama told me
She said, "Never put your trust in no man"
And oh, that is why I wanna go to church again, ooh

[Chorus]
I don't care how the preacher spends all the money
I don't care if the choir director is funny
(I really don't care)
The only thing that matter is (This)
Is my business with the Lord
I don't have no heaven or hell to put nobody in
Every day I try my best to make it in (See, I'm trying to make it in)
(That's why)
The only thing that matter is (This)
Is my business with the Lord

[Verse 2]
There was a time
I didn't care what the preacher had to say
So many don't do's in the church
Just pushed me further away
"Don't wear your pants like that"
"Don't wear your hat to the back"
And it started getting old
I was tryna figure out, what's more important
My clothes or my soul?

[Chorus]
I don't care how the preacher spends all the money
I don't care if the choir director is funny
(I really don't care)
The only thing that matter is (This)
(The only thing that matters is)
Is my business with the Lord
I don't have no heaven or hell to put nobody in
Every day I try my best to make it in
(Every day I'm trying to make it in)
(That's why)
The only thing that matter is (This)
(The only thing that matters is)
Is my business with the Lord (With the Lord)

[Bridge]
See, I know a lot of y'all are saying that I
Dave, you give the church a bad name
(Dave, you give the church a bad name)
But I didn't make these stereotypes
(But I didn't make these stereotypes)
So, I'm not the blame
(No, I'm not to blame, no, no)
I'm not trying to say (I'm not tryna say)
That everybody's doing wrong (Everybody's doing wrong everywhere)
If it wasn't going down (If it wasn't going down)
Then I couldn't sing this song there
(If it is, I still don't care, no)

[Chorus]
I don't care how the preacher spends all the money
(I really don't)
I don't care if the choir director is funny
(I really don't care)
(I don't care how he looks at you)
The only thing that matter is (This)
(Only thing that matters is my biz with the Lord, yeah)
Is my business with the Lord
I don't have no heaven or hell to put nobody in
(Don't have no heaven or hell)
Every day I try my best to make it in
(See, I just wanna make it in for myself)
(That's why)
The only thing that matter is (This)
(All I care about is my business with the Lord)
Is my business with the Lord (Yeah)

[Outro]
I don't care what the preacher do (I don't)
Or how the choir director looks at you (I really don't care)
The only that matters is (this)
My business with the Lord
I don't have no heaven or hell
I gotta worry about myself (That's way)
The only thing that matters is (This)
My business with the Lord
