"Good evening brothers and sister, I'm very sorry to announce that Deacon Jones will not be present at the services today. He had a slight accident. But he wants everyone to be happy, because when you're happy, that's what counts." Brothers and sisters and sisterettes Deacon Jones sends his deepest regrets To the members of the flock who are new around here There's somethin' 'bout the deacon that I wanna make clear Who's honored and respected? (Deacon Jones) Now who's so unaffected? (Deacon Jones) when the sinner's moanin' low, who will share his tale of woe? Lordy, Lord Hallelujah Deacon Jones Who's so handsome and good lookin'?
