2129
when I saw you in the garden of Gethsemanie
drunk when you realized the plan
you fell into the arms of Mary Magdalene
stain of stigmata on your hands
when the sky fell down on Calvary
I saw the light shining in your eyes, yeah
'cause you and me baby
we were born ten thousand years ago, yeah,
yeah now, and I know it sounds crazy, but we got ten thousand more to go, yeah
and then we followed behind the sisters to La Hagera
saw Ramos kiss like a Judas on the wire
when they cut his hair and they laid him out like Jesus
I know October sixty-seven John Lennon lied
Seargent Pepper could not help us, no
when the flowers died, I realized, yeah
that you and me baby
we were born ten thousand years ago, yeah
yeah now, and I know it sounds crazy, but we got ten thousand more to go, yeah
Oh I don't hear it now, yeah
and in twenty-one twenty-nine we gonna meet in a cantina in Carletta
I'm gonna put Bessie Smith on the jukebox all night long
when the Spanish sun comes up on our empty cups
I'm gonna take you dancin deep down into the dawn
and one bright mornin when we meet Saint peter, yeah
I ain't gonna give a damn if he dont let us in
'cause you and me baby
we were born ten thousand years ago, yeah
yeah now,
and I know it sounds crazy, but we got ten thousand more to go, yeah
Robert Johnson knew your name
short for Billy Holiday
put the barricades in nineteen sixty eight
'cause you knew the man who shot JFK
Lenin gonna love it
Lord I heard the news
just the Basilicas fear the Jews
there will be another curse on the passage of guilt
Steve Lawrence sang the blues, yeah
you and me baby
we were born ten thousand years ago, yeah
yeah now,
and I know it sounds crazy, but we got ten thousand more to go
I don't hear it now, yeah
drunk when you realized the plan
