Moses and Me

There will be time for rest when the day is done 400 miles neath the burning sun Living in sin there will be price to pay When the whole wide world washes away There will be plenty for us soon enough As far as the eye can see Just a little walk through the wilderness Into the land of milk and honey And when your children go and do what they asked of you Back by the burning tree We'll go downtown and hang around You and Moses and me You and Moses and me You and Moses and me You and Moses and me Been watching people struggle through the walls of time Trading their joy for pain But when the feast turned to famine and that sunny day Turned to 40 nights of rain There will be plenty for us soon enough As far as the eye can see Just a little walk through the wilderness Into the land of milk and honey And when your children go and do what they asked of you Back by the burning tree Gonna go downtown and hang around You and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me I used to find comfort in those shiny things Made by the minds of men But now the world is too cold for my old soul Better get out while you can There will be plenty for us soon enough As far as the eye can see Just a little walk through the wilderness Into the land of milk and honey And when your children go and do what they asked of you Back by the burning tree Gonna go downtown and hang around You and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me Just you and Moses and me
