Andrew Lloyd Webber - Jacob and Sons lyrics
[Andrew Lloyd Webber - Jacob and Sons lyrics]
Way way back many centuries ago
Not long after the Bible began
Jacob lived in the land of Canaan
A fine example of a family man
Jacob - Jacob and sons - depended
On farming to earn their keep
Jacob - Jacob and sons - spent all of
Their days in the fields with sheep
Jacob was the founder of a whole new nation
Thanks to the number of children he'd had
He was also known as Israel
But most of the time
His sons and his wives used to call him dad
Jacob, Jacob and sons, men of the soil
Of the sheaf and crook
Jacob, Jacob and sons
A remarkable family in anyone's book
Reuben was the eldest of
The children of Israel
With Simeon and Levi the next in line
Napthali and Isaachar with Asher and Dan
Zebulun and Gad took the total to nine
Jacob, Jacob and sons, Benjamin and Judah
Which leaves only one jacob, Jacob and sons
Joseph - Jacob's favorite son
Jacob, Jacob and sons jacob, Jacob and sons
Jacob, Jacob and sons
Jacob, Jacob, Jacob and sons
Not long after the Bible began
Jacob lived in the land of Canaan
A fine example of a family man
Jacob - Jacob and sons - depended
On farming to earn their keep
Jacob - Jacob and sons - spent all of
Their days in the fields with sheep
Jacob was the founder of a whole new nation
Thanks to the number of children he'd had
He was also known as Israel
But most of the time
His sons and his wives used to call him dad
Jacob, Jacob and sons, men of the soil
Of the sheaf and crook
Jacob, Jacob and sons
A remarkable family in anyone's book
Reuben was the eldest of
The children of Israel
With Simeon and Levi the next in line
Napthali and Isaachar with Asher and Dan
Zebulun and Gad took the total to nine
Jacob, Jacob and sons, Benjamin and Judah
Which leaves only one jacob, Jacob and sons
Joseph - Jacob's favorite son
Jacob, Jacob and sons jacob, Jacob and sons
Jacob, Jacob and sons
Jacob, Jacob, Jacob and sons
