Tom, Son House recorded at least 3 version of 'Preachin' the Blues'. The one I give below is "Preachin' the Blues - Part One", recorded in Grafton, Wis., on 28 May 1930 (Pm 13013).

Oh I'm gonna get me a religion, I'm gonna join the Baptist church.
Oh I'm gonna get me a religion, I'm gonna join the Baptist church.
I'm gonna be a Baptist preacher and I sure won't have to work.

Oh I'm gonna preach these blues and then I want everybody to shout.
Mmmmmm, I want everybody just to shout.
I'm gonna do like a prisoner, I'm gonna roll my time on out.

Oh, I lay in my room, I bowed down to pray.
Oh, I lay in my room, I bowed down to pray.
Say the blues came along and they drove my spirit away.

Oh, I'd had have religion, lord this very day.
Oh, have had religion, lord this very day.
But the womens and whiskey, well, they would not let me pray.

Oh, I wished I had me a heaven of my own.
(Great God Almighty)
Yeah, heaven of my own. (Wait for it. Follow me.)
Certainly I'd give all my women a long long happy home.

Yeah I love my baby, just like I love myself.
Oh, just like I love myself. Well if she don't have me, she won't have nobody else.
