jerusalem - jimmy webb lyrics

Loading...

i was looking at the day moon
when the mist it faded away
i thought i saw some jesus
and i thought i heard some jesus say
“take your wife and family, and everyone you love
you better get out of l.a.”
and the lord said “right now”

i said “might not be the lord too soon?
would you make the innocent pay?
if you could find just ten good men
would you try to save this wicked town today?”
and a voice said “tell your sister and your brother, and and anyone you love
boy, you better get out of l.a.”
and the lord said “right now”

jerusalem, jerusalem
how often would i have gathered you together?
just as a hen gathers her baby
under her wings
and you would not
and you would not

and humming a meaningless ruin
the voices faded away
i thought i saw a black dove flyin’
crying down, candling the way
singin’ “take your father and your mother and anyone you love
boy, you better get out of l.a., right now”
and the lord said “right now”
jerusalem, jerusalem
