Oh Mary Don't You Weep Lyrics

Well if I could, I surely would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Well Mary wore three links and chains
On every link was Jesus' name

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Well one of these nights about 12 o'clock
This old world is gonna rock

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Well Moses stood on the Red Sea shore
Smote the water with a two by four

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Well old Mister Satan he got mad,
Missed that soul that he thought he had

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Brothers and sisters, don't you cry
There'll be good times by and by

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

God gave Noah the rainbow sign
No more water, but fire next time

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep

Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Oh Mary don't you weep no more
Pharoh's army got drowned
Oh Mary don't you weep.

Oh come on, not one comment on this brilliant song? I know it's not original, but what an arrangement. So rich and dense, if this doesnt' get you out of you chair nothing will. Highlight of the album.

I'm pretty sure it's "Pharaoh", not "Pharoh".
