Hillbilly UFO

(You Got To Pray To The Lord)
When You See Those Flying Saucers:
The Buchanan Brothers [1947]

You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day
It’s a sign there’s no doubt
of the trouble that’s about
So I say my friends you’d better start to pray

They’re a terrifying sight
as they fly on day and night
It’s a warning that we’d better mend our ways
You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day

Many people think the saucers
might be someone’s foolish dream
Or maybe they were sent down here from Mars
If you’ll just stop and think
you’d realize just what it means
They’re more than atom bombs or falling stars
And though the war may be through
there’s unrest and trouble brewin’
And those flying saucers may be just a sign
That if peace doesn’t come
it will be the end of some
So repent today, you’re running out of time

When you see a saucer fly
like a comet through the sky
You should realize the price you’ll have to pay
You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day
