[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 1]
In the year 19 and 18
God sent a mighty disease
It killed many a-thousand
On land and on the seas
[Chorus]
We done told ya God’s done, warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya God’s done, warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 2]
Spread disease to everybody
And the people were sick everywhere
It was influenza epidemic
And it floated through the air
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 3]
The doctors, they got troubled
And they didn't know what to do
They gathered themselves together
And they called it the Spanish flu
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 4]
Soldiers died in the battlefields
Died in the camps, too
Well, the captain said, “Lieutenants
Oh, I don’t know what to do.”
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 5]
Well, it’s God that’s warnin’ the nation
He's a warnin’ them every way
To turn away from the evil eye and seek the Lord and pray
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 6]
Well, the news was presented to the people
"You’d better close your public schools.
"And to prevent the death piles buildin’
Ya better close your churches, too.”
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
[Verse 7]
Read the Book of Zechariah, Bible plainly say,
“Thousands of people in the cities dyin’,
Account of their wicked ways.”
[Chorus]
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
We done told ya, God’s done warn ya
Jesus comin’ soon
