Blow Gabriel, Blow

Blow Gabriel, Blow - Mary Martin

Do you hear that playin'

Yes we hear that playin'

Do you know who's playin'

No who is that playin'

Well it's Gabriel Gabriel playin'

Gabriel Gabriel playin'

Gabriel Gabriel sayin'

Gabriel Gabriel sayin'

"Will you be ready to go

When I blow my horn "

Oh Gabriel blow

Go on and blow Gabriel blow

I've been a sinner I've been a scamp

But now I'm willin' to trim my lamp

Oh Gabriel blow

I was low Gabriel low

Mighty low Gabriel low

But now since I have seen the light

I'm good by day and I'm good by night

So blow Gabriel blow

Once I was headed for hell

Once I was headed for hell

But when I got to Satan's door

I heard you blowin' on your horn once more

So I said "Satan farewell"

And now I'm all ready to fly

Yes to fly higher and higher

'Cause I've gone through brimstone

And I've been through the fire

And I purged my soul

And my heart too

So climb up the mountain top

Blow Gabriel blow

Go on and blow Gabriel blow

I want to join your happy band

And play all day in the promised land

So blow Gabriel blow

But when I got to Satan's door

I heard you blowin' on your horn once more

So I said "Satan farewell"

And now I'm all ready to fly

Yes to fly higher and higher

'Cause I've gone through brimstone

And I've been through the fire

And I purged my soul

And my heart too

So climb up the mountaintop

And start to blow Gabriel blow

Go on and blow Gabriel blow

I want to join your happy band

And play all day in the promised land

So blow Gabriel blow
