Tongues of Fire Lyrics by Joseph Huber

Tongues of Fire

0

[Verse 1]
I'm going down the ol' black river
Goin' down to the river tonight
I ain't talking about feeling tired
Won't you come on down to the ol' black river
Raise a ruckus with me tonight
I've been walkin' and I'm feelin' wired
I've been walkin' and I'm feelin' wired
[Verse 2]
I been shakin' like a madman
You're shakin' like a leaf
But baby don't be afraid
Pop the top off that bottle
I ain't askin' you please
Let them spirits fly away
Let them spirits fly away
[Chorus]
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Tryin' to raise the dead
Rise and shine, boys, leave your beds
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Let it rest on your head
Stay awake tonight, you can sleep while you're dead
[Verse 3]
We're gonna go heal the blind
We're gonna go prophesy
Raisin' dead men from their graves
And you can throw off your body
Like you throw off your clothes
You don't need them anyway, oh Lord
You don't need them anyway
[Chorus]
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Tryin' to raise the dead
Rise and shine, boys, leave your beds
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Let it rest on your head
Stay awake tonight, you can sleep while you're dead
[Verse 4]
We'll dance around the fire
And watch the sparks shoot out and die
They ain't no different than you or I
'Cause we jump up from the earth
And land back down in the dirt
But don't worry, everything will be alright, Lord
Don't worry, everything will be alright
[Chorus]
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Tryin' to raise the dead
Rise and shine, boys, leave your beds
I'm singing with the tongues of fire
Let it rest on your head
Stay awake tonight, you can sleep while you're dead
