LET'S MAKE A BABY KING
(c) Jesse Winchester (Bug Music)
ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS MORNING
THERE WAS A PRETTY LITTLE BABY BOY
SEEMS LIKE I REMEMBER SADNESS
MINGLING WITH MY JOY
MARY, SHE SAW THE FUTURE
AND ALL THE SORROW IT WOULD BRING
THAT'S WHY MARY STARTED CRYING
WHEN SHE HEARD THE ANGELS SING
LET'S MAKE A BABY KING
MAKE HIM LORD OF ALL
WE'LL GIVE HIM EVERYTHING
LET'S MAKE A BABY KING
YOU REMEMBER LITTLE KING DAVID
HE'S THE LITTLE BABY'S KIN
HE WAS COUSIN TO A MAN NAMED JOHN
I KNOW YOU MIGHT REMEMBER HIM
JOHN SAID LET'S GET READY
AND ALL YOU HAROLD ANGELS SING
'CAUSE THIS OLD WORLD SURE NEEDS TO KNOW
THE GOOD NEWS THAT I BRING
(CHORUS)
WE COULD USE A REVOLUTION
THIS WHOLE WORLD'S UPSIDE DOWN
WE NEED A NEW DIRECTION
GOT TO TURN THIS CRAZY THING AROUND
WE NEED A LORD TO GUIDE US
HE'S GONNA SHOW US WRONG FROM RIGHT
WE NEED A LAMB TO LEAD US
INTO THE LAND OF THE LIGHT
(CHORUS)
