Lyrics

Once I got to the mountain top, tell you what I could see Prairie full of lost souls running from the priests of iniquity Where the hell was Elijah What do you do when the prophecy game was through We gotta take the walls of Jericho Put your lips together and blow To the very top Say the truth crystallizes like jewels in the rock, in the rock Get down Moses, part another sea Carve another tablet out of L.S.D. Get down Moses, out in Tennessee Get down Moses, down in the street The blood washing down all the gravel to our feet Get down Moses, down in the pit Lying in a dream, cross a battlefield Crashing on a downtown strip Looking in the eyes of the diamonds and the spies and the hip Who's sponsoring the crack ghetto Who's lecturing who's in the know and in the don't know You better take the walls of Jericho Put your lips together and blow Goin' to the very top Where the truth crystallizes like jewels, in the rock, in the rock Get down Moses, from the eagle aerie You gotta to make new friends out of old enemies Get down Moses, back in Tennessee Get down Moses, down with the dreads They got a lotta reasoning in a dreadhead Get down Moses, down in the street Get down Moses Get down Moses, part another sea Carve another tablet out of L.S.D. Get down Moses, out in Tennessee Get down Moses, down in the street The blood washing down all the gravel to our feet Get down Moses, down in the pit Get down Moses Get down Moses Get down Moses We need to eat We gotta chew it over with our wisdom teeth Get down Moses
