Lyrics for Song: Get Down Moses
Lyrics for Album: Streetcore [2003]



Once I got to the mountain top, everywhere 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 came was true





You cannot take the walls of Jericho


Put your lips together and blow


To the very top


Sayin' the truth crystallizes it 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 green, cross bound field


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 eyrie


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 dread head


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
