Once I got to the mountain top, tell you what I could see,
Prairie full of lost souls running from the priests of iniquity
Where the hell was Elijah?
What do you do when the prophecy game was through?
We gotta take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
To the very top
They say the truth crystallizes like jewels in the rock, in the rock
Get Down Moses - part another sea
Carve another tablet out of L.S.D.
Get Down Moses - out in Tennessee
Get Down Moses - down in the street
The blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get Down Moses - down in the pit
Lying in a dream, cross battle field,
Crashing on a downtown strip,
Looking in the eyes of the diamonds and the spies and the hip
Who's sponsoring the crack ghetto?
Who's lecturing? Who's in the know and in the don't know?
You better take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
Goin' to the very top
Where the truth crystallizes like jewels, in the rock, in the rock
Get Down Moses - from the eagle's aerie
We gotta to make new friends out of old enemies
Get Down Moses - back in Tennessee
Get Down Moses - down with the dreads
They got a lotta reasoning in a dreadhead
Get Down Moses - down in the street
Get Down Moses
Get Down Moses - part another sea
Carve another tablet out of L.S.D.
Get Down Moses - out in Tennessee
Get Down Moses - down in the street
The blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get Down Moses - down in the pit
Get Down Moses
Get Down Moses
Get Down Moses
We need to eat, we gotta chew it over with our wisdom teeth
Get Down Moses

Review about Get Down Moses A Legend | Reviewer: Adam | 7/7/2008
Saw him play with the Mescaleros at the Metro in Chicago. Met him when he got off tour bus, shook his hand and told him the clash were my favorite band, Sadly he died 5 months later. Strummer could spit in a cup and it would still be good music. Peace Out Strummer

i love it | Reviewer: LMK | 11/23/2007
This song has the biting social critique of the early Clash with the polish of a new recording. Good Stuff. We will miss you, Joe.
