Get Up John - Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris

Well, get up John, go down to Jordan

Get up John, prepare the way

Man from Galilee is waitin'

You must meet him there today

Get up John, go tell my people

This will be a Holy day

Tell them of the Jew that’s waiting

That the Saviour’s on the way

John you’ve been chosen

John go unafraid

John I’ll go with you

John The Baptist, this is the day

Well, get up John, go tell Jerusalem

Saviour’s waiting on the shore

Baptize Him in the River Jordan

I’ll send a dove from Heaven’s door

John you’ve been chosen

John go unafraid

John I’ll go with you

John The Baptist, this is the day

Well, get up John your work is finished

Daylight breaks, the soldiers come

You will die for me tomorrow

Welcome home, your race is run

John you’ve been chosen

John go unafraid

John I’ll go with you

John The Baptist, this is the day…
