Lyrics:

I met an old man on the highway he said
“Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing,
Beware of false prophets and false teachers.”
And I’ll never forget the words he said to me
and they went something like this:
The SBC took my baby away
The SBC took my baby away
This girl I met online – a Christian dating site
Said she’d love me all her days, call me Mister Right
And things were looking pretty good except for one thing,
She’d told me she felt led to go into some kind of ministry
And I asked her politely, “What kind of ministry?”
She just shrugged her shoulders then uttered, “You’ll have to wait and see.”
And that’s when I found out the Lord didn’t tell her anything
I tried to bring her back to reality, but she just looked at me scowled
The SBC took my baby away
The SBC took my baby away
She’ll go to seminary, get that MRS.
She’ll get an M.Div. and call herself blessed.
Take a job meant for man and preach to the choir
Place visions higher than the Words of Christ
Cuz it doesn’t coincide what’s deep inside her heart
She’ll fashion her idol and claim that it is God.
I went down to seminary and I can tell you this
Mention Romans 9 you might hear a little hiss
Cuz every time I opened my mouth they wanted to shut me down
To cross my will to prove their will isn’t the will of God
Looking back I’m startin’ to see that things are pretty bleak
Cuz 95% of these students shouldn’t even preach
Cuz jealousy and bitterness are always rampant there
And the Word of God is trampled for the sake of their careers.
So I told my baby to pack her things, we’re leaving tonight
Don’t you turn your face back, lest you get burned up by God’s wrath
But she didn’t listen or submit, she turned herself around
She walked right back into that city burning to the ground
“I’m sorry to interrupt you, I just had a revelation
I think all these women should start leading congregations
And if you don’t like it, well I don’t really care
I’ll just keep preaching, teaching until I suck up all the air!”
The SBC took my baby away
The SBC took my baby away
She’ll go to seminary, get that MRS.
She’ll get an M.Div. and call herself blessed.
Take a job meant for man and preach to the choir
Place visions higher than the Words of Christ
Cuz it doesn’t coincide what’s deep inside her heart
She’ll fashion her idol and claim that it is God.
