Saint Mo’

Music: Graham Guest & Moses Guest
Words: Graham Guest

Moses was a good man – He was a very good man
Made his way through the southland – Yes, he made his way
A fearless southern gentleman – Fearless southern gentleman
Made his way by walking – Yeah, yeah, making his way

Shot a hundred men in the Red Brigade – Shot them in a very good way
In the blood-red Appa-la-chi-a – In the blood-red hills
Drinking banjo-whisky, drunk all day – We want to get drunk all day
And a sixteen children family – Oh ba-by

Yes, he did it his way
Into Carolina on a Georgia day
What can I do, and what can I say?
You’ve got to deliver my pain

Now a twenty-first century rock ‘n’ roll band – Yeah, yeah, rock ‘n’ roll band
And a wayward son and four good men – We do all that we can
Going to raise him up from the dirty land – Raise him up from the dirty old land
Somehow seems like a good plan – Yeah, yeah, a very good plan

Down the Tugaloo River and the Seneca Hills – Going down the Tuglaoo’s blood-red hills
All the way to Georgia and the hickory still – All the way to Georgia, we want to drink
Off highway sixty-three, I feel – Yeah, yeah, think and feel
If we can’t find him, no one will – Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yes, he did it his way
Into Carolina on a Georgia day
What can I do, and what can I say?
You’ve got to deliver my pain
