PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
I happened upon a video of "Southern Soul Cowboy" while surfing YouTube. Since then I have searched the internet for complete or partial lyrics for "Southern Soul Cowboy", but haven't found any lyrics online at all for this song. That surprised me since the complete lyrics for an English language song from the United States that has more than nine million views for its official YouTube video and millions of other views from some other YouTube videos/ song files would usually be featured on at least one online lyric site.

After searching the internet for information on King South, I believe that I found the answer to the question about why there are no lyrics for "Southern Soul Cowboy" online. I think that is largely because of King South (birth name Southern Lausane, III) has become a persona non grata because of his history of sexual assault and his being sentenced to prison in 2023 for possessing a firearm. https://www.justice.gov/usao-mdal/pr/montgomery-man-sentenced-10-years-federal-prison-being-felon-possession-firearm

In no way does this pancocojams post on the song "Southern Soul Cowboy" minimizes or condones  King South's terrible behavior and criminal actions. However, (as is the case with R Kelly and some other entertainers) I believe that King South's creative accomplishments should still be acknowledged and documented, if not applauded.   

This pancocojams post is an attempt to document the lyrics for "Southern Soul Cowboy", a song that I happen to like a lot. 

Additions and corrections for these lyrics are very welcome.

INFORMATION ABOUT BISHOP BULLWINKLE
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_Bullwinkle
"Bernard Thomas (August 22, 1948 – June 16, 2019), better known as Bishop Bullwinkle, was an American singer/comedian best known for appearing in the viral YouTube video "Hell to the Naw Naw".

Background

Bishop Bullwinkle's real name was Bernard Thomas. The Bullwinkle part of his name came from a childhood nickname; while in school, a classmate of his wrote on the bulletin board, "Bernard Thomas is funny like Bullwinkle the moose".[1] He was based in Florida.[2] He had mixed reactions to his style and song content, drawing both praise and condemnation.[3] He is from Plant City, Florida.

"Hell to the Naw Naw"

In the video which is shot outdoors, Thomas is seen in a white suit, wearing sunglasses and a white hat. The props used are a podium with a monkey and fire extinguisher resting on it. By July 22, 2015, the video went viral and got over 200,000 views with over 4,000 likes.[4] As of August 15, 2020, a video of the song attracted over 50 million views and 408,000 likes.[5] Another video has attracted over 12 million views and over 218,000 likes.[6] The song was even played on NBC.[7]

A video of an 86-year-old grandmother dancing to the song went viral in a very short time. Beverly Jenkins uploaded the video of her grandmother Claudia Haggerty dancing to the song. By September 4, 2015, it had attracted 3 million views since it was posted. It was shared over 100,000 times on Facebook.[8]

LYRICS - "HELL TO DA NAW NAW NAW"
(Bishop Bullwinkle, produced by Bigg Robb)
 
[Intro]

Mmm (C'mon, Bishop)
Mmm-mm-mmm, yeah (Yeah)
Mmm-mm-mmm (Listen)
(Let it go, let it go)

[Verse 1]

My name Bishop Bullwinkle
I got the First Church of Nothing but the Truth (What you say?)
Deacon Kyle, Deacon George, Deacon Clay
Open up the door and turn em' loose
First I want to thank God
For the blood running warm in my veins (Yeah)
I thank God for my life, health and strength
I got a sound mind, I'm not insane (Come on)
I ain't gonna preach too long
I ain't gonna take this service too far
My sermon's in the morning
Hell to the naw, naw, naw
Come on, come on

[Chorus]

Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Listen)

[Verse 2]

Sister Ella, Sister Ruth, make sure that everybody get a seat
(C'mon, y'all)
Sister Lilly may go back in the kitchen
'Cause she when it get through, I need to eat (I mustn't)
Fix me collard greens and cornbread and rice
Chicken breast, ox tails on the side
(That's what I'm talkin' 'bout)
Deacon Underwood, get my Bentley ready
'Cause when it get through, I need a ride
Doctor West, count the money, count the money
Come back and tell us what ya raised
(Well, had to find another, did you?)
I got the people, they looking for some blessings
First God gotta get the praise (C'mon, y'all)
See, there's an old saying
When the praises go up, you get the blessing coming down
I got some peoples in the church
God almighty look at 'em, they messing around

[Chorus]

Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Listen)

[Verse 3]

I got peoples in the church smokin' weed, drinkin' whiskey
They drinkin' a lot of gin (What you say?)
I got the preacher with the night prayer leading
Talking about, "Can I get a amen?" (C'mon)
Early Sunday morning
'Bout a quarter and a half past the ten (Yeah)
I got some people, they comin' off the street
God almighty look at 'em, they strollin' in (They need help)
They layin' at the altar
They confessin' their sins, yeah (Come my way)
Time you see 'em Monday morning
Doing the same thing again (Hypocrite, hypocrite)

[Chorus]

Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Listen)

[Verse 4]

Got kids dropping out of school
Talking about they don't want to learn
Yet they're standing on the corner rolling blunts
Talking about, come on let's burn
(Y'all better get back to school)
I got kids walking up and down the street
Pants hanging down around their knees
(Pull them pants up)
Talking about that they're looking for a job
When I see 'em jitter bug, I say please
See all they ever talk about, brag about
Who got the biggest and the baddest gun
Time they see the copper with the bubble top
They drop the gun, they want to run (Put them guns down)
And now the sheriff got 'em locked up, hah
They sitting in the county jail (It's a shame)
I heard their mama, she was crying all night
She can't get no money for the bail
And now they're mad with the home boys
'Cause they didn't put no money in the commissary
(Free to go, naw)
Be glad you're in the jail, brother man
You were sure headed for the cemetery (C'mon, wait)
There's an old saying
That a hard head make a soft behind (Yeah)
Well, since you did the crime, go on and do the time
Stop the baby crying, come on, come on

[Chorus]

Hell naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Hell to the naw)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw (Listen)

[Verse 5]

When people talk about ya
All you gotta do is let 'em talk much as they please

(That what they gon' do, y'all)

'Cause all you gotta do is get down on your knees
(Tell the Lord about it)
You tell God about it and I guarantee
He will never leave you alone (Yeah)
All you gotta do is tell the Devil
"Hell naw, won't you leave me 'lone?" (Devil, leave)

[Chorus]

Hell naw (Come on, wait)
To the naw, naw, naw (Come on, come on)
Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw
Hell naw-naw, to the naw-naw, to the naw-naw, naw-naw
To the naw-naw, to the naw-naw, hell to the naw-naw, hah
To the naw-naw, naw, naw, hell to the naw
Naw, naw, naw, naw, hell to the naw-naw
