Episode version
Part one
- Rachel Jordan:
- In a motel in Delacroix,
- I was drinkin' like a Dartmouth boy,
- And thinkin' 'bout the wrong turns that I took.
- Well, I woke up on the puke-green floor,
- And opened up a dresser drawer,
- Lookin' for a bottle,
- But instead I found a book.
- Lenny:
- She's talkin' about the bible.
- Carl:
- So? She's good-lookin', shut up.
- Lenny:
- You shut up.
- Rachel Jordan:
- A book about a man,
- A book about the dude who lives above,
- A book about a man,
- Who drives a pickup full of sweet sweet love.
- Now, if you think He doesn't care,
- Or maybe that He isn't there,
- It's not too late
- To see how wrong you are.
- So when you're soul has gone astray,
- Just let God be your Triple-A,
- He'll tow you to salvation
- And He'll overhaul your heart.
- A book about a man,
- A book about the dude who lives above,
- A book about a man,
- Who drives a pickup full of sweet sweet love.
Part two
- It's a show about Ned,
- About him losing his sweet wife.
- She landed on her head,
- But now it's time to get on with his life.
Album version
- Reverend Lovejoy:
- While our organist is on a much needed vacation, we thought we'd try something new. So get down and put your knees together for the Christian rock stylings of...Kovenant!
- [rock band starts playing]
- Lisa:
- Hey, isn't that the bass player from Satanica?
- Marge:
- I think it is.
- Flanders:
- [gasps] Electric guitars in church? Oh, my gosh, the dropouts must've overpowered the Reverend.
- Rachel Jordan:
- This is a love song about a dude I met in a sleazy hotel. [Flanders gasps] A dude named God.
- Flanders:
- Oh.
