Melvins - How About lyrics
[Melvins - How About lyrics]
I remember how I used to walk up and down
The streets of the city of New Orleans
Bound by drugs, bound by alcohol, committing
The different acts of sin
Living beneath my privilege
Doing things that were contrary to God
As well as the law
But after all the things that I did and
After all the sins that I committed
One day I heard about Jesus
I'm just like the woman that heard about
Jesus coming through the city of Jericho
And she had a problem
But, I had a problem with lying
Too and lying was sin
I was living in sin, living and
Doing things I wanted to do
Living and seeing what I wanted to see
But one day Jesus touched my
Life and when Jesus came
In the liquor went out the drugs went out
My old ladythe lord blei thank God
My sins and judge every
And I have a right to the tree
Doesn't mean jack to me
And everyone that knows
Jesus and everyone thats been born again
And everyone thats been washed in
The blood you heard the
Brother singin' about the blood it's
Stuff about the blood
Its stuff about the blood of Jesus
And wash away your sins and
Wash your mind and wash your
Heart and wash your life, oh praise God
I thank God for that opportunity and
I just wanna let you
Know that he loves us and
The Bible backs it up:
"That God so loved the world that
He gave his only begotten son
That whoever should believe in him shall not
Perish but have an everlasting life"
What's the plan when he comes through this
Door what happens? Speak up, Butch, please
Well he goes on and goes up to the elevator
Gets drunk
But, I mean what does he
Do? He comes through this
Through this door? Why don't
You just tell me?
He comes through this door goin'
Around and takes the elevator
What is this the kitchen or-
No this is the freight elevator
Do you have lots of people
Coming through like that?
Well there's one
Do you have a lot
Of celebrities coming through?
Well no holiday, uh
Conventions and things in the back
Just coming up this way
What do you think about Elvis
Presley coming through here?
Oh it's wonderful
Do you know anything about him?
Yeah do I know anything about him?
Yeah
I was raised in his home town
Are you gonna be saying something to
Him or be talking to him?
Well that's just gonna depend
Are you looking forward to seeing him?
Sure
Why don't you show us where he's coming in?
He's coming through this door here, there's
Two doors in this entrance
He's coming through this door here and this
Is and it opens back like
This and we have this one the
Other door goes back like this
You gotta have the blood of
Jesus Christ the love
Fromto man he died on that cross so that
We might have a right to the tree of life
I come to tell you this my beloved
The streets of the city of New Orleans
Bound by drugs, bound by alcohol, committing
The different acts of sin
Living beneath my privilege
Doing things that were contrary to God
As well as the law
But after all the things that I did and
After all the sins that I committed
