It’s Christmas

2008

[Intro]
That's right, y'all
[Chorus]
Dear children go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna send thee one by one
One for the little bitty, baby
Born of the Virgin Mary
And He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
And He was born, ooh born, born, born in Bethlehem
[Chorus]
Now children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
[Verse 2]
Hey, I'm gonna send thee two by two
Two is Paul and Silas
One was little bitty baby
He was born of the Virgin Mary
And He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
[Chorus]
Come on, children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee, ooh Lord
How shall I send thee?
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna send thee three by three
Three was Hebrew children
Two was Paul and Silas
One was the little bitty baby
Born of the Virgin Mary
And He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
[Chorus]
I say, I say, children, go where I send thee
Tell me how would you want me to send you?
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
[Verse 4]
I'm gonna send thee four by four
Four was four that (Stood at the door)
Three was Hebrew children
Two was Paul and Silas
I tell you one was a itty bitty baby
Born of the Virgin Mary
And He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
[Bridge]
Oh Lord, yeah
What you talkin' 'bout?
[Scatting]
He said
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
Hey, tell me what you want me to do
(Go ... where you gonna go?)
Where you going? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
[Scatting]
(Go ... when you gonna go?)
Come on, let's go to that other part, hey
(Go) Children, go (Go, go where I send thee)
Children (Go), ooh go (Go), go where I send thee
Hey, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
(Go ... where you gonna go?)
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
You need to listen to me now, I need to talk to you
He was born of the Virgin Mary
(Go ... when you gonna go?)
[Scatting]
Yeah, yeah, hey, go, oh yeah, yeah
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
Yeah-yeah-yeah
(Go ... how you gonna go?)
Stop playing right now, come on, let's go
Hey, He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
And children, go, go, go where I send thee
[Outro]
Lord have mercy
