    And the Starvation Army, they play

    And they sing and they clap and they pray

    'Till they get all your coin on the drum

    Then they tell you when you’re on the bum

    You will eat by and by

    In that glorious land above the sky

    Work and pray

    Live on hay

    You’ll get pie in the sky when you die

    - Fragment of The Preacher and The Slave, by Joe Hill. Origin of the phrase “pie in the sky”.
