lyrics

The Eternity Man.

She was his "Dolly Parton",
He was her "Johnny Cash ",
They both lived in a trailer park,
Both knew they were "white trash";
They praised their Lord on Sundays
Even though they didn't know why...
The sky is blue,the sea is green
And their life is but a lie!

Chorus. Li, Li, Li,Li,Lie...etc.

Then one sunny morning
She fell pregnant with his ghost,
She broke the news to "Johnny"
While buttering his toast;
Then nine hard months later
"Dolly's" waters broke,
A head popped out on Christmas Day
And for the first time "Johnny" spoke;
He said. "Lord we're so grateful
You sent to us a son,
I think we'll call him Joshua
Ben Joseph - just for fun!
We hope he'll grow up strong and wise
We'll teach him wrong from right,
We hope he'll be a Preacherman
To help to spread the Light..."

Chorus. Li, Li,Li,Li, Light...etc.

When "Josh "grew up to be a man,
He travelled north and south!
And only words of wisdom
Came out of his sweet mouth;
He settled down in Palestine, Texas, U.S.A.
He played cards with the Devil there
And Trumped him every play!
But they shot him at the Crossroads
As he was passing by,
Speaking words of Love and Light
Which made the people cry;
And "Johnny" was there with him
As he lay dying on the ground,
The Light of Love still in his eyes
His voice a golden sound;
He said- "Father please forgive them,
Make them understand why...
SPIRIT lasts Eternally...
IT WILL NEVER DIE!"

Chorus. Di, Di, Di, Di,Die...etc.
