Greatest Story Ever Told - Bob Weir

Moses came riding up on a quasar

His spurs were a-jingling, the door was ajar

His buckle was silver, his manner was bold

I asked him to come on in out of the cold

His brain was boiling, his reason was spent

He said if nothing was borrowed then nothing was lent

I asked him for mercy, he gave me a gun

Said now and again these things just got to be done

Abraham and Isaac

Sitting on a fence

You’d get right to work

If you had any sense

Y’know the one thing we need

Is a left-hand monkey wrench

Gideon come in with his eyes on the floor

Says: «y'ain't got a hinge, you can’t close the door»

Moses stood up a full six foot ten

Says: «you can’t close the door when the wall’s caved in»

I asked him for water, he poured me some wine

We finished the bottle then broke into mine

You get what you come for, you’re ready to go

It’s one in ten thousand just come for the show

Abraham and Isaac

Digging on a well

Mama come quick

With the water witch spell

Cool clear water

Where you can’t never tell
