By now, Real Old Time Religion, as us filkers call it, has about 1000 verses. It's one of those songs that incites people to add to it. Part of the tradition at filk circles is that if the song is started, it is considered inappropriate to use a lyric sheet. (An exception to the usual rule.)
Pretty good, but you left out a verse: Oh, old Odin we will follow And in fighting we will wallow, 'Til we end up in Valhalla, And that's good enough for me.

This is best when a large group sings it as a round, with each person taking a random verse from memory!
Thanks :) I have added a link to the lyrics and more in the description of the video.
It was good enough for Dagon,
that conservative old pagan,
who still votes for Ronald Reagan;
it's good enough for me!
This is great ! Thank you for a fun, rollicking piece.

By any chance, could you post the lyrics ?

Thanks :) I actually left out hundreds of verses, most of which can be found here:
