This song was inspired by one of those religious shows. The preacher was asking for money. If you sent in money, you would be added to their role book, and he would send you their magazine "once a month 'til Jesus comes". Cheryl couldn't let that line pass.

- Once a month ‘til Jesus comes
- Once a month ‘til Jesus comes
- Holding forth my incantation
- I'll lead you to your salvation
- Once a month ‘til Jesus comes
- Why don't you send me a dollar bill
- Come on and send me a dollar bill
- Chances are you're old and gray
- And don't get out much anyway
- Come on send me your dollar bill
- Well I am counting up the sum
- Every day ‘til Jesus comes
- I am moving in his name
- To a new financial plane
- Stay tuned in, 'cause later on
- We will cry and speak in tongues
- Sister you can tell
- Inkey dinkey par le vouz
- I want to send you some beautiful things
- Send you some beautiful things
- Gold lapels and fake poinsettias
- Bibles postcards, our newsletters
- I'll send you some beautiful things,
- Got operators on the telephones now
- Got operators on the telephones now
- Now Jesus needs your help this week
- I'll mention you next time we speak
- Got operators waiting on the telephone lines now
- Won't you come and visit me
- At my university
- We'll have buses drive you in
- So bring all the loot you can
- You see I really need this dough
- And the Lord has told me so
- I don’t mean to cause alarm
- But if you fail me I'll buy the farm
- Oh, once a month ‘til Jesus comes
- Once a month ‘til Jesus comes
- I will bless you sweet old things
- Buy new cars and diamond rings
- Once a month ‘til Jesus
- Once a month ‘til Jesus
- Once a month ‘til Jesus comes
