The Church Bells May Ring Song Lyrics
The Church Bells May Ring by Diamonds RIP VAN WINKLE
The Devotions

Note: This song has a "background" song played with the
main song and music, making it unusually difficult
to make out the words. Here is my attempt:

Intro: Sound of rolling bowling ball and falling pins.
"Wow-wee a strike!"

Background: Boom-boom, boom boom-a-boom-boom
Boom-boom, boom boom-a-boom-boom
Rip Van Winkle, Rip van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep

He fell asleep in the woods one day
(??-unclear) lost his way
That night he was (??-unclear) story
Nothing (??-unclear) ever joy
Those little men bowling in his dream
He left his nagging wife now
(Slept for 20 years)
Didn't bother to wake up
(He grew a long white beard)
This is how the story goes
(Listen my children and you will hear)
He fell asleep in the woods one day
(??-unclear) lost his way
That night he was (??-unclear) story
Nothing (??-unclear) ever joy
Those little men bowling in his dream

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (snoring)
(rolling ball, pins falling, "wow-wee!")


Note: (??-unclear) means "This line is so badly
garbled that I can't even make a wild guess as to what the heck it's
supposed to be"
