Hold My Head - Slim Cessna's Auto Club

Welcome, all you people, let me tell you this story

About how this man came, saying he’d give us glory

He came right here and he offered a proposition

But all we had to give was all our children

Gather up your children

Gather your belongings

Gather up your women like the singer in the song sings

Load your guns with bullets

Powder up your rifles

Then pray the Lord to save your soul

Like in the Holy Bible

Dear God, and Mary, and Jesus set me free

How’d the Devil make a sinner outta me?

Dear God, let Moses part the Red, Red Sea

Holy water, set my people free

Well mister, even though you’ve got us bent over in an awkward position

I’m not quite sure my people like your proposition

So we’re just gonna bed down right here and pray for shelter

'Cause, mister, you’ll just bring my people helter skelter

Gather up your children

Gather your belongings

Gather up your women like the singer in the song sings

Load your guns with bullets

Powder up your rifles

Then pray the Lord to save your soul

Like in the Holy Bible

Dear God, and Mary, and Jesus set me free

How’d the Devil make a sinner outta me?

Dear God, let Moses part the Red, Red Sea

Holy water, set my people free

Hold my head
