His name was Jimmy Swaggert, He saved souls on our T.V. They caught him in motel rooms With Hookers for all to see. When he was a kid his mother would scold, "James keep your hands off your crotch!' It's nasty and dirty and surely a sin," But never mentioned he couldn't just watch. They say Jim Baker's a pervert, And probably a deviant too, But Reverand Swaggert really did nothing, 'Cept "rent a room with a view." Well his worries now are all over, He'll soon be a rich preacher again, He sold his life story to Playboy, And the movie to MGM. |

Lordy! Lordy! Lordy! These men of the cloth were rightly exposed for committing sins of the flesh! After reading thy words, methinks a devil lurks in the fruit of thine own looms as well! lol Lordy! Lordy! Lordy! |

Swaggert and Baker and two homing pigeons Hoping to sample a taste of religion. Jimmy and Jimmy, disciples of porn Telling the gals it was Gabriel's horn. Send in those dollars...the boys need another In between praying to our Virgin Mother. Babylon's missing a pair of its own Send in that moolah - just pick up the phone!! |

Can you believe that people still give them money? I am glad it was them who got caught and not your two buddies from here! |

How interesting that you should post this today. I woke this morning and made my coffee, turned on CNN (as is my custom on those days when I keep a schedule) and there on the news, I see from that here in La. there is congregation in Shreveport consisting of african americans who plan on offering payment of $5 an hour to "white" people who will attend this Sunday's service. The Reverend said he planned on putting out extra chairs in the aisles. Hmmm..."interesting," I thought, and went to get the paper. There in the Metro Section I found THIS piece of news greeting me through the steam of my second cup of coffee: http://www.nola.com/news/t-p/stbernard/index.ssf?/base/news-0/105971916967820.xml Apparently I was right all along. The only sin in Louisiana is being found BORING. chuckle. Methinks YOU are safe enough Toe! sigh. Think I'll turn the news off now. And oh. They have been making an effort to clean up Airline Hwy. of late too. The hookers now have to pass a dress code. shaking my head...and the rest of the nation wonders why we drink... |
