How is little Thomas McGee? |
|
Thomas McGee, he swallowed a key |
|
did he die, little Thomas McGee? |
|
Holly, Holly just let him be |
|
he's wiser now, little Thomas McGee |
|
Called this kid on the telephone |
|
heart was beating in my chest |
|
I needed something I could not digest |
|
and the phone kept ringing |
|
there's no one home |
|
Ran to his house, rapped on the window |
|
blood was pumping much to fast |
|
stuck my fingers through the glass |
|
strange music playing on the radio |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
way down low |
|
and carry me home |
|
Pray like Peter, preach like Paul |
|
Jesus died to save us all |
|
I climbed through the window |
|
I crawled on the floor |
|
I ripped off all the furniture |
|
but I still couldn't find what i was looking for |
|
Problems to you we claim as our own |
|
cannot be solved they must be outgrown |
|
the bottomless knowledge that can not be known |
|
the empty ringing of the telephone |
|
and the strange music playing on the radio |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
way down low |
|
and carry me home |
|
where do you go, where do you go |
|
swing low baby save my soul |
|
where do you, where do you |
|
swing low, baby, save my soul |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
|
swing low |
