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