Bridge Riff G F B^C

Gideon come in with his eyes on the floor

Says, "You ain't got a hinge, you can't close the door."

Moses stood up a full six foot and ten

Says, "You can't close the door when the walls caved in."

I ask him for water, he poured me some wine

We finished the bottle then broke into mine.

You get what you come for, you're ready to go

And it's one in ten thousand done come for the show.

Abraham and Isaac digging on a well

Mama come quick with the water witch spell

Cool clear water well you cain't ever tell.

Moses come ridin' up on a quasar.

His spurs was a-jingling, the door was ajar.

His buckle was silver, his manner was bold.

I asked him to come on in out of the cold.
