Verse 1
When I got to the mountain top, tell you what I could see,
All the altar boys running from the priests of iniquity
Where the hell was Elijah, ...any one of you would do!
Cloudbursts on the mountain top, the prophecy came was true
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
Bounce the echo on the walls of Jericho
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
Put your lips together and blow
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
There's a cave at the very top
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
The truth crystallizes iike jewels in the rock
(Pause) Oh ...El-jah
Chorus 1
Get Down Moses, ...part another sea
Carve another tablet out of L.S.D.
Get Down Moses, ...down in the street
(Guitar Lead: )
Get Down Moses, ...down with the dreads
Got a lotta reasoning in their dread head
Get Down Moses, ...down in Tennessee
(Guitar Lead: )
(Guitar Riff - repeat)
Verse 2
Yeah, I won a ticket in a raffle, to the City of Sin,
The tour guide took a handful of bribes, then shut us in
Bus stop on your itinerary, ...is a 'mother and child crack ghetto'!
Put another role up on the ' Roll, you could win the State Lotto
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
We gotta take take the walls of Jericho
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
So Put your lips to that thing and blow
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
Get to the the cave at the top
(Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah)
'Truth crystallizes ...like jewels in the rock,
(Pause) Oh ...El-jah
Chorus 2
Get Down Moses, ...out in the street
Blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get Down Moses, ...down in the pit
(Guitar Lead: )
Chorus 3
Get Down Moses, ...eagle's eyrie
They're no different to our old enemy
Get Down Moses, ...something to see
(Guitar Lead: )
Chorus 4
Get Down Moses, ...down with the dreads
They got a lotta reasoning in their limited head
Get Down Moses, ...down in the street
(Guitar Lead: )
Chorus 5
Get Down Moses, ...down in 'the head'!
They get a room-mate to lu-na-cy...
Get Down Moses, ...make it for peace!
(Guitar Lead: )
...Thank You!
