Long ago when but a boy at old camp meetin' time

How my heart would beat with joy to hear the old bells chime

Callin' all the saints of God into the house of prayer

Oh such prayin' singin' shoutin' for the Lord was there

How I like the old time preachin' prayin' shoutin' singin'

How I like the old time readin' of God's words

How I like to hear that glory hallelujah singin'

How I like the old time worship of the Lord

[ guitar ]

How I like the old time...

[ guitar ]

Preachin' in them good ole days was still the world acclaim

Preachin' for the souls of men and not for wordly fame

Under such old fashion preachin' sinners knelt and pray

And the Lord would save them in that good ole fashion way

How I like the old time...
