Goin' Up In Smoke
Talked to my friend again today
Forty days, forty nights
It rained all over the world to be exact
Sinners played, disobeyed
The word comin' down, that's a fact
Some people took it for a joke
Just can't understand
They nailed our Savior to the cross
But He told them all He would rise again, rise again
I talked to my friend again today
This is what he had to say, he said
We're goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope, we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
I talked to my friend again today
Don't be afraid by what I say
Don't wait till judgment day, start to pray
Stop the hate, killin', now
We'll all have to go anyhow
Everybody's havin' tons of fun
But who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the sun gets close to earth
Soon we'll all go up in burnin' flames, burnin' flames
Talked to my friend again today
This is what he had to say, he said
We're goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Oh, I talked to my friend again today
Everybody's havin' tons of fun
Who's gonna take the blame?
Each day the sun gets close to earth
Soon we'll all go up in burnin' flames, burnin' flames
Talked to my friend again today
This is what he had to say, he said
We're goin up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
And we ain't got no hope 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
Hey, we ain't got no hope 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, goin' up in smoke
Goin', goin'
Sinners played, disobeyed
The word comin' down that's why we're
Goin' up in smoke and we ain't got no hope
Oh, no, no, no
Goin', everybody's havin' tons of fun
Who wanna take the blame?
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, 'cause we're goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
We ain't got no hope, goin' up in smoke
Goin' up in smoke, goin' up in smoke
Forty days, forty nights
It rained all over the world to be exact
