The Box Tops

The Box Tops were a Memphis rock group from the 1960s. They are best known for the hits "The Letter", "Cry Like a Baby", and "Soul Deep" and are considered a major blue-eyed soul group of the period. They performed a mixture of current soul music songs by artists such as James and Bobby Purify and Clifford Curry, pop tunes such as "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Keith Reid, Gary Brooker and Matthew Fisher of Procol Harum, and songs written by their producers, Dan Penn, Spooner Oldham, and Chips Moman. Vocalist Alex Chilton went on to front the powerpop band Big Star and to launch a career as a solo artist, during which he occasionally performed songs he had sung with the Box Tops. more »

(gospel piano intro) 

I met her in church! 
I met her in church, on a Sunday morning 
She looked at me with eyes of love, as the choir sang, "Hallelujah!" 
Hallelujah! 

I met her in church 
I met her in church; we fell in love on a Sunday morning 
All at once, I heard angels singing, singing "Hallelujah!" 
Singing, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 

(wedding bell, instrumental wedding) 

I didn't find her on a Saturday night; 
I found her in the Sunday morning light 
I found her on a back row seat 
In a little church just down the street 

I met her in church, and I wed her in church 
Preacher Jones said, "Come here, children 
Good Lord willing, and the creek don't rise 
You're going to be happy for the rest of your life! 
Singing, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 

I met her in church; I met her in church 
I found a love, I found a love! 
Hallelujah, I found a love… 
Right there in church, I found a love 
Singing, Hallelujah! 

(repeat & fade): 
I met her in church; I met her in church 
Hallelujah!
