Lyrics of Elijah

Eli-jah! eli-jah!
Don't start no fires, eli-jah!

Elijah looked toward heaven-it got very bright
The fire fell sure enough takin' 50 guys' lives
I've got a feelin'- i'm about to die
Cause i know elijah's tried that twice
So i'm sayin'

Eli-jah! eli-jah!
Don't start no fires, eli-jah!
He's the one
Uh who brought, uh who brought the fire down
Drive those soldiers away

So now i'm gonna meet him-and i wonder what i shall say
I've gotta follow all the king's commands- so here's my plan
I'm gonna shout and holler
"elijah, save us from senseless slaughter!
"please won't you go with us; i'm a peaceful man!"
So i'm singin'

Eli-jah! eli-jah!
Don't start no fires, eli-jah!
(i'm) givin' up!
Cause you brought, uh-you brought the fire down
(i'm) givin' up!
Cause you brought, uh-you brought the fire down
Blew those soldiers away
(x 4)
