And 1,000 makes $40,000.
Sh!
- Pow!
- Urgh!
Hi!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
I had my car break down once
on the side of the road.
And I got out and I laid hands
on the hood of this car
and I said "Devil, if you think I've been
crazy before, you just wait one minute
because I'm going to ask the Lord
to come down and heal this Plymouth. "
- Amen.
- Hallelujah.
So I got down and I asked the Holy Spirit
to make her whole again
and the Holy Spirit, lo and behold,
came down and made her good as new.
Glory, hallelujah, praise God, brother.
Well, this here is
my cousin, Jerry Lee Lewis.
Y'all probably know him from that
blasphemous "Shakin"' song he put out.
Number four in the top ten
this week, cousin.
Well, I really doubt
that it's in the Lord's top ten.
Rock and roll is the devil's music.
- Right.
- That's right.
Rock and roll is a rhythm. A feelin'.
A feeling that emanates
from the pit of hell.
- Right.
- Well, that feeling got me a hit record.
A hit record.
Do you still have that coin
I gave to you onetime?
Oh, as a matter of fact...
I do.
Choices, Jerry Lee.
This whole life is all about choices.
What choice are you going to make
with your music? With your life?
I don't play or sing as well as you do.
I heard that.
But all that I have belongs to God. All of it.
What would happen
if you gave him all you have?
Well, as a matter of fact, cousin,
I just might do that one day.
Praise God.
- What about today?
- What?
Do you remember what you said
you would do if you got a hit record?
You said you would go out
and preach his word.
Did I say that?
That's funny. I don't remember
sayin' that. I must have been drunk.
But the Lord remembers, cousin.
Well, is this that car
that God healed for you?
Well, that was six months ago.
She's up and died on me now.
Why don't you just lay hands on her here?
- I'd like to see that myself.
- Cousin, you cannot ask the Lord
for more help than you are willing
to help yourself. He's got me this far...
Why don't you just let this old Oldsmobile
here get you a little further along?
You made a choice just then, Jerry Lee.
From your singin' came this car,
and from this car will come
the spreading of God's word.
Amen.
- Thank you, Jesus.
- Well, don't thank Jesus.
Thank Jerry Lee Lewis.
Praise God, cousin.
- Let's go to bed, babe.
- OK.
Bedtime, Myra Gale.
Please, somebody!
Well, what do you think?
You know, Jay,
I reckon hooking up with Jerry Lee is
about the best thing ever happened to us.
Look here what I'm gonna buy next.
"The kitchen of tomorrow, today. "
- What in the hell are they doin' in there?
