The Indiana Man Lyrics

(What the land did send)
(What the land did send)
(When the old world passed)
( O ye sons of men)
(Now a city shines)
(On the grave, amen)
(What the land did send)
(What the land did send)

Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
With a brand new bible
And a big, big gun

He rose from the fire
With the deed in his hand
Like Saul from the old ash tree
"Damn their treaties,
Damn their kings,
I've got a gun named destiny."

Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
With a brand new bible
And a big, big gun

He rose from the chapel
With the deed in his hand
And a sermon pointing West
"I've brought the killing to Prophetstown,
There ain't no prophets left."

Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
With a band new bible
And a big, big gun

He rose from the mountain
With the deed in his hand
And a scar upon his cheek
"I've drawn blood from every stick,
And baptized in the creek."

Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
With a brand new bible
And a big, big gun

He rose from the water
With the deed in his hand
And a new world to redeem
'Eighteen states from this Indian land,
Come December, there'll be nineteen.'

Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
Who's that preachin'?
(The Indiana man)
With a brand new bible
And a big, big gun

And he'll keep on rising
And he'll keep on rising
And he'll keep on rising
Til' the kingdom come
