Let me retell |
|
A story of old |
|
About a man named moses |
|
Who lived long ago |
|
He prophicied good |
|
He prophicied bad |
|
And now that prophecy's |
|
Coming to pass |
|
Let all your sons, and your daughters |
|
Of the golden calf |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
Lay it all down, for paradise here on earth |
|
A whole lot of people, including myself |
|
Thought the story of moses was just a tall tale |
|
But all of the things that we see going on |
|
Are just what moses set down |
|
Let all your sons, and your daughters |
|
Of the golden-yeah |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
Lay it all down, for paradise here on earth |
|
Let me retell |
|
A story i know |
|
About a man named moses |
|
Who lived long ago |
|
He prophicied good |
|
He prophicied bad |
|
And now that prophecy's |
|
Coming to pass |
|
Let all your sons, and your daughters |
|
Of the golden-yeah |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
I just can't imagine a reason for sorrow |
|
Just can't imagine the hurt |
|
You've got to lay it down |
|
You've got to lay it down |
|
You've got to lay it down |
|
You've got to lay it down |
|
I said lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
Lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
There's just no reason to hurt |
|
You've got to lay down your burden of sorrow |
|
Lay down your burden of hurt |
|
I said |
|
Lay it all down, for paradise here on earth |
