That, my friend, is funny.
I hope someday to hang out with you. You have the kind of slightly bizarre mind that I deeply respect.
Bart,
You are now in the lead for the BEST RAGGIN' BLOGGER OF 2008 award.
This may turn out to be a very good year for raggin'

David, Wade, and CB,
Glad you all liked it.
Dave Miller,
I take exception to the word "slightly."
BTW, and one more thing, Bart,
You do realize that if a female professor teaches this little ditty to her seminary Hymnology class that she will have to speak to the disciplines of Theology, SBC Issues, Baptist Doctrine specifically and she may have to reference the Bible since you included John the Baptist.
In addition she may have to deal with hermeneutics and exegetical methodologies and a few other things that a well rounded seminary degree should include, such as: What constitutes a biblical and theological Baptist identity?
Of course, if she only has women in her Hymnology class she will not be in any jeopardy of losing her job. Right?
cb
C.B.,
Any professor of anything who teaches this little ditty deserves a pink slip regardless of the professor's gender.

The first and last stanza remind me of an old poem...
There was a young poet from Japan
Whose poetry no one could scan.
He said, "Yes, I know,
It really is so,
But I always try to get as many words in the last line as I can."
:^)
Made my Monday. Thanks Bart.
Brother Bart,
What I am about to say may just blow your mind. I agree with Brother Wade. :>)
Blessings,
Tim
Dude,
I just spit coffee at my computer screen in Panera. Too funny.

Bart,
You blew your Baptist Identity. You sang ALL the verses. You know we don't sing more than 3 of 'em at any given service.
Bart,
Is this from the new Baptist Hymnal?

I think you are soooo funny, Bart. But to be very sure that you are funny I am going to ask my husband first. pause...
Okay...I asked him and he says you are very funny, too. selahV
Bart,
You are in the wrong profession. Too bad that the writer's strike is over. Leno probably could have used some help :-)
Rob
SelahV,
Your comment was almost as funny as Bart's.
Bart, I only called you slightly bizarre to be nice.
Well played, but can you but the Baptist Faith and Message (2000) to the tune of Salty Dog Blues?
kws,
i sing the baptist faith and message 2k to the tune of rocky top.
also, i hope to goodness that all of yall have had the joy of hearing that old bluegrass song... "i've got five pounds of possum in my headlights tonite." have you heard it? it's about a man who has a bunch of children... it's christmas time, and he's lost his job...but, everything's alright, cuz he's got five pounds of possum in his headlights tonite.
