Lyrics
Deacon Jones wife was a faith healer
But faith won?t heal her now
Her body's on fire and it ain?t from no choir
and that?s what the Lord don?t allow
She was a mother
And a daughter
And a preacher?s wife
Now she's staying out late to be with me tonight
Deacon Jones wife was a faith healer
But faith won?t heal her now
It's a Sunday mornin' but she ain?t home
She's out just burnin' the wind
Got a V8 Caddi and a brand new daddy
Her heart's on fire with sin
Lay your hands on me sister
I?m feelin' weak
Well you know you ain?t prayin? in my backseat
Deacon Jones Wife was a faith healer
But faith won?t heal her now
Well the Lord won?t forgive what she done did
She ain?t turnin' all the dappers down
When she rolls those eyes
She can hypnotize
Make a dead man rise from the ground
She got witchcraft love
And voodoo too
The Lord had your heart
Till the devil got you
Deacon Jones wife was a faith healer
But faith won?t heal her now
Heal me sister
