Something Got A Hold Of Me
Hank williams & audrey williams
[c] at first when I heard of some people who claim
That the old-time religion was [g] real
I [c] said Ill go down, take a [f] look at the crowd
For [c] just that weak-[g] minded I [c] feel.
[c] I walked up the steps and I peeked in the door
But the devil said, dont you go [g] in!
But I [c] said, it wont hurt me Ill [f] just step inside
And Ill [c] set as far [g] back as I [c] can. [but-]
Chorus
[c] something got a hold of me [praise god]
Yes something got a hold of [g] me [oh! lord]
I [c] went there to fight, but Ill [f] tell you that night
God [c] certainly got a [g] hold of [c] me.
They sang like they meant it, they all clapped their hands
I said, its commotion, thats all.
When they get down to pray, Ill just get up and leave
For I dont wanta be seen here at all.
But I bowed that time, he got started to preach
And he looked straight down at me
He told evrybody how mean that I was
He didnt talk like he thought much of me.
I sat in my seat just thinkin it oer
And then they all started to pray
The fire fell from heaven, I fell to the floor
I prayed there and God had his way. [for-]
Chorus
song performed by Hank Williams
