"Little Country Church"

[Danger Man]

 

LITTLE COUNTRY CHURCH
by Fred Field & Chuck Girard 1971

 

Little country church on the edge of town
Doo-do-do-dn-do-do-do
People comin' everyday from miles around
For meetin's and for Sunday school

 

Chorus:

And it's very plain to see
It's not the way it used to be

 

Preacher isn't talkin' 'bout religion no more
He just wants to praise the Lord
People aren't as stuffy as they were before
They just want to praise the Lord

 

They're talkin' 'bout revival and the need for love
That little church has come alive
Workin' with each other for the common good
Puttin' all the past aside
Long hair, short hair, some coats and ties
People finally comin' around
Lookin' past the hair and straight into the eyes
People finally comin' around
~~~
We used to sing this song all the time when I was in high school during the Jesus Movement days in the mid 70's---the best days of my life and the only time I was ever truly happy. This was written by Fred Field and Chuck Girard when they were in the band, Love Song. It was on the group's first album in 1972.

Great guitar playing, and lovely singing!

Wow, 1971 composition.

I am so glad to hear this recording.

Very well done!

Got me vibing with just the guitar and voice.

Nice job, keep it up.

Cheers,
