Gabriel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] One fine mornin' when the sun is still in Pisces Foot on the land and the other foot out on the high seas My old friend Gabriel stands With a smile on his face and a horn in his hand And he looks as if he wants to play me a tune And if the time is right My soul's gonna take its flight And the sun will be my shadow at high noon Oh, yeah [Chorus] Gabriel, Gabriel Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn, hey, hey Gabriel, Gabriel Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn [Post-Chorus] Though I got nothin' more to say Nobody's list'nin' anyway Just a little more time to get my people together, alright [Chorus] Wait a minute, Gabriel, Gabriel Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn Gabriel, Gabriel Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn, blow your horn [Post-Chorus] I've been expectin' you I know you got a gig to do But give me just a little more time to get my people together Little more time [Verse 2] Woo, yeah, preachers shout while sinners sin and old ladies cry Fightin' causes, wavin' flags and God knows why Turnin' water into wine And they throw your pearls before the swine And yet you trust them not to bust your balloon So let me skip a page And wake up in the new age And the sun will be my shadow at high noon [Chorus] Oh, Gabriel (Gabriel), Gabriel (Gabriel) Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn Hey, hey, hey, hey Gabriel (Gabriel), Gabriel (Gabriel) Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn, now, now, now [Post-Chorus] Crowd is runnin' wild And I feel like a motherless child But give me just a little more time to get my people together Sounds perfectly bluesy, one more time [Chorus] Gabriel (Gabriel), Gabriel (Gabriel) Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn Gabriel (Gabriel), you say it (Gabriel) Come on down to Atlanta and blow your horn, alright [Post-Chorus] And you know where I'll be At the corner of Fourteenth and Peachtree Just a little more time to get my people together, alright Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey [Outro] My, my, my, my, my Hey, hey Hey, hey Gabriel Yes Yes, yes (Get my people together) (Hallelujah Hallelujah) One more time Get my people together Alright (Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah) One more time to get my people together (yeah, yeah) (Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah)
