Testo Man of the Book - Dear Reader
Testo della canzone Man of the Book (Dear Reader), tratta dall'album We Followed Every Sound (Live with Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg)
Our great grandfather of a baker
He wasn't a shaker
He wasn't a Quaker
He was a man of the book
Grandfather of a baker
He wasn't a baker
But he was a Baptist
He was a man of the book
Sir Mahatma of a guy
He wasn't a shaker
He wasn't a Quaker
Wasn't a man of the book
Grandfather of a baker
His soul was in danger
He needed a savior
He was a man of the book
In the beginning there was the book
In the beginning the book was with God
In the beginning the book was God
Great grandfather, great grandfather
He followed the Lord's good plan
Great grandfather, great grandfather
Was always a righteous man
Great grandfather, great grandfather
Is someone I'd like to meet
What sort of a great grandfather
What sort of a man was he?
Great grandfather, great grandfather
Is someone I'd like to meet
What sort of a great grandfather
What sort of a man was he?
There was no room at the inn
For men with dark skin
Mahatma needed a place to rest his head
Great grandfather of a baker
Shared his bed with the stranger
As the Lord had instructed
He was a man of love
