The Conversion Of Ronnie Jones

[00:00:15] Ronnie Jones decided to settle down

[00:00:18] So he married annie Birch

[00:00:22] Now annie hadn't been around too much

[00:00:25] She mostly only went to church

[00:00:29] Right away she started in insisting

[00:00:31] That he come on up and join

[00:00:35] He said I'll tell you what I'll do

[00:00:37] To settle this by dog I'll flip a coin

[00:00:42] Preacher used some fancy words

[00:00:44] But ronnie tried his best to understand

[00:00:48] Cause he loved his little annie

[00:00:50] And for her he wanted to be a better man

[00:00:55] But of all the things they told him

[00:00:57] It seemed that he remembered only one

[00:01:02] He said I guess I'll have to go up there

[00:01:05] And tell 'em everything I've done

[00:01:08] The Sunday meeting just took up

[00:01:11] And ronnie stood outside half scared to death

[00:01:15] Regreting what he had to do in there

[00:01:18] And tried hard to get his breath

[00:01:21] There didn't seem to be much use to put off

[00:01:24] What he had to do no more

[00:01:28] So he backed way up and took a run

[00:01:30] And bolted through the double lobby door

[00:01:44] Annie's eyes began to overflow

[00:01:47] In tears of joy at what she saw

[00:01:50] The preacher took him by the hand

[00:01:52] And said bless you my boy tell it all

[00:01:57] While every head was bowed in prayer

[00:01:59] Some women slipped outside as if to pray

[00:02:04] Fearing what the spirit might

[00:02:06] Cause ronnie and his circumstance to say

[00:02:10] All their fears were justified

[00:02:12] His simple life became an open book

[00:02:17] Names like dorris cunningham

[00:02:19] Wanda webb even Marlene cook

[00:02:24] Another kind of fire began to burn down

[00:02:26] In the depths of annie's soul

[00:02:30] She turned on ron and used some words

[00:02:32] Nobody'd ever heard her say before

[00:02:37] Sometimes we know not what we pray for
