Congos - Can't Come In | |
(Cedric Myton) | |
*You keep on knocking but you can't come in | |
You've got to be clean | |
You keep on knocking but you can't come in | |
The door is locked on you, don't you know that it's true | |
**When the Bridegroom cometh | |
You've got to be ready | |
When the Bridegroom cometh | |
You've got to be clean | |
***There were ten Brethrens together | |
Five were wise, and five were foolish, foolish | |
So you keep on knocking but you can't come in... | |
The rolling stone gathers no moss | |
Too late, too late shall be your pride | |
You keep on knocking but you can't come in | |
You've got to be clean | |
To rally round the Red, Gold and Green | |
You keep on knocking but you can't come in | |
The door is locked on you | |
Mercy 'pon Jah Jah judgement come | |
Telling the world... | |

*Luke 13:24-25 - Strive to enter in at the strait gate: | |
for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and | |
shall not be able. When once the master of the house is | |
risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to | |
stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, | |
Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say | |
unto you, I know you not whence ye are: | |
**Matthew 25:6 - And at midnight there was a cry made, | |
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. | |
Luke 12:35-37 - Let your loins be girded about, and | |
your lights burning; And ye yourselves like unto men | |
that wait for their lord, when he will return from the | |
wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open | |
unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom | |
the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I | |
say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them | |
to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. | |
***Matthew 25:1-13 - Then shall the kingdom of heaven be | |
likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and | |
went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them | |
were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish | |
took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the | |
wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While | |
the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. | |
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the | |
bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those | |
virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish | |
said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps | |
are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; | |
lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather | |
to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they | |
went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were | |
ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was | |
shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, | |
Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily | |
I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye | |
know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man | |
cometh. |
