Doobie Brothers - Slippery St. Paul

Slippery St. Paul

(Patrick Simmons Tom Johnston)
Down along the river
Where the big bulrushes grow
You find the old frog jumpin the water
He wont come up no more, babe
He wont come up no more, baby
He wont come up no more, woo
He wont come up no more, sugar mama
He wont come up no more
Smell that burnin fire, baby
Burnin in the sand
See that devil rise, mama
He sho wanna take yo hand, now
He sho wanna take yo hand, baby
He sho wanna take yo hand, woo
He sho wanna take yo hand, sugar mama
He sho wanna take yo hand,
Oh, harvest moon
Keep shinin your light down on me
The Lord reach out his hand
My soul floats out to thee
I dont feel no pain
When they shot me down
Lay my body out, baby
They put me in the ground so cold
They put me in the ground, baby
They put me in the ground, woo
They put me in the ground, sugar mama
They put me in the ground
