Don't mess with the missionary man. He will fuck up your head.

But its a great song anyway.

Well I was born an original sinner

I was borne from original sin

And if I had a dollar bill

There'd be a mountain of money

Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good

My mother told me strong

She said "be true to yourself

And you can't go wrong."

"But there's just one thing

That you must understand:

You can fool with your brother

But don't mess with a missionary man."

Don't mess with a missionary man

Don't mess with a missionary man

Well the missionary man

He's got God on his side (a mental condition)

He's got the saints and apostles

Backin' up from behind

Black eyed looks from those Bible books

He's a man with a mission

Got a serious mind

There was a woman in the jungle

And a monkey on a tree

The missionary man he was followin' me

He said "Stop what you're doing

Get down upon your knees

I've a message for you that you better believe."
