holy holy holy moses song for new orleans
Select language to translate this lyric
Holy, Holy, Holy Moses*
Can't you hear me holy Moses?
Good God, I've said I've seen rain and fog
Lord God knows that I've seen rain and fod
Holy, Holy, Holy Moses
Don't you fear me holy Moses?
I'm a stranger to my own homeland
Stranger, stranger, to my myself I am
Are you a stranger to me, too?
La, La, La, La, La, La
God spilled rain upon the water
And the car got sunk, and my ma got drunk
And my faith got shook
How can I claim New Orleans
I'm just wishing that the sun shines
On my brother
Holy, Holy, Holy Moses
Don't you fear me holy Moses?
I have put your portrait in the sand
High tide coming in like New Orleans
