By the way, by and by
Ein Song des unvergessenen Joe Hill:

The Preacher and the Slave


Long-haired preachers come out every night,
Try to tell you what´s wrong and what´s right;
But when asked about something to eat,
They will answer in voices so sweet:
You will eat, bye and bye,
In that glorious land in the sky;
Work and pray, live on hay
You´ll get pie in the sky when you die.
