Verse 1

Cracklin’ grease and a fiddle on fire,
Smoke in the rafters, joy in the choir.
Folks showed up with a crock and a song,
Preachin’ with a two-step all night long.

Chorus
It’s a Kitchen Jamboree!
Where the Lord don’t mind if you stomp off-key.
With a Bible in hand and a jug on your knee—
HALLELU! It’s a Jamboree!

Verse 2
Washtub thump and a banjo ring,
Spoons keep time while the children swing.
Mamaw’s wailin’ like a mountain dove,
Singin’ every sorrow clean with love.

Bridge
Calloused hands and Sunday shoes,
Trading aches for gospel blues.
We ain't got gold, but we sure got grace
We’ve buried our kin where the creek runs dry,
Held to the cross while the storm rolled by,

“We didn’t just sing—we testified.”

Verse 3
Granny said, “Dance ‘fore your time runs out,
Praise ain’t quiet—it was born to shout!”
So we pass that flame from hand to hand,
Raisin’ up glory from this mountain land.

Chorus 2X
Kitchen Jamboree!
Where the Lord don’t mind if you stomp off-key.
With a Bible in hand and a jug on your knee
HALLELU! It’s a Jamboree!

HALLELU! It’s a Jamboree!
