Sing Hallelujah, Hallelujah And you'll shoo the blues away Cares pursue ya, Hallelujah! Gets you through the darkest day Satan lies a-waitin' And creatin' skies of gray But Hallelujah, Hallelujah Helps to shoo the clouds away I recall in Times when I was small in Light and free Jubilee days In that sunny land of milk and honey I had no complaints while I thought of saints So I say to all who fearful are Sing Hallelujah Hallelujah! And you'll shoo the blues away When cares pursue ya, Hallelujah! Gets you through the darkest day Satan lies a-waitin' And creatin' skies of gray But Hallelujah, Hallelujah Helps to shoo the clouds away Up at dawn and hit the deck Put out your chest and straighten your neck Gotta be clean without a speck Tonight the admiral's comin' to check Here this! Here that! Shine your shoes and square your hat They'll give 'ya the boot if 'ya don't salute Hup one two! Satan lies a-waitin' And creatin' skies of gray But Hallelujah, sing Hallelujah Helps to shoo the clouds away Sing Hallelujah
