Song Parody : Fundie Tradition (apologies to Hank Williams Jr.)

[Abdiel]

Fundie Christian People
Are a contentious family
And lately some of my kin-folk
Have disowned a few others and me.
I guess it’s because I kinda changed my direction
Lord, I guess I went and broke their Fundie Tradition

They get on me: wanna know, Hank
Why do you drink
Why do ya watch TV
Why won’t you use the 1611 KJV
Over and over
They preach on their conviction.
So if I separate
From this stuff that’s not great
It’s just a Fundie Tradtion

Fundies all around here
Won’t speak my church’s name
Mostly ‘cause our kinda music
And theirs ain’t exactly the same.
Stop and think it over
They're in a unique position
Hymns they’ve sung for so long
Were based on tavern songs
It’s a Fundie Tradition.

So they ask me Hank
Why do you smoke?
Why does your wife wear slacks?
Why are there kids in your youth group
Dating blacks?
Over and over they’ll preach on their unique conviction.
But not about being fat
Ain’t nothing wrong with that
It’s a Fundie Tradition.

Now I have been a Baptist
I’ve been an IFB
They claim to have been around
Since about 30 A.D.
If’n you ain’t been immersed
That’s mighty suspicious
You can’t join their Fundie club
And sit with the pernicious.

And they’ll ask ya, brother
Why do you spare the rod?
Why don’t ya whoop yo kids.
Bein’ hit with a belt never hurt me none
Helped me turn out like I did.
Just because it’s called abuse
Don’t let that stop your conviction
Smack ‘em with wood
Hide the bruises real good
It’s a Fundie Tradition.

Love it! Thanks for making me laugh.
