Young Moses

[Verse 1]

Lay down, young Moses, child

Your wandering star a while

Hang your heart on a quiet soul and

Stay a while in the house of gold

Each room has many mansions;

Each mansion many rooms

You'll sleep on sheets of silver;

You'll eat on plates of moon

[Verse 2]

I will take up white linen

I will a' roving go

I do not need your mansions;

I will live in a house of soul

Bring me my Florida Water

Set me my serpent free

Hang ye no stars above me;

I am bound for Expidite!

[Breakdown]

And all the love they're gonna give me

(All the love, all the love, all the love)

They're gonna be my family now;

Y'all can keep your thrones

[Verse 3]

I've been up on the mountain

I've been to the end of the line

I've pierced the fiery curtain

And the only face I touched was mine

[Verse 4]

I'll burn me through Ohio

I'll find the Appleseed

Who lives on lightning bugs;

His mouth'll glow when he begins to preach

I'll burn me through the handle

I'll drink the cactus truths;

Appear to peyoteras

Hills the color of conqueror root

[Verse 5]

I got my heavy working

I hung your capstone, too

I'm the king of the milk maids, honey;

Say my name you know it's true

I got my heavy working

I like my lightning sweet

I've been a beast of burden;

That is to say I am a beast
