Like A Sunday In Salem The Amos And Andy Song Lyrics

Like A Sunday In Salem The Amos And Andy Song lyrics

There was a lights out television show 

 There was an Amos and Andy on the radio 

 And a man on a hill runnin' round don't you know 

 Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go" 

 Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go" 

  

 There were some people out in Hollywood 

 The words they had spoken it was well understood 

 But three thousand miles and for ev'ryone's good 

 A man stood singing his song 

  

 Dancin' around all the tombstones he said 

 "That a man if he's livin' would rather be dead" 

 And he opened the eyes to the typewriter lead 

 And he said, "Now it won't be too long." 

 (Repeat chorus) 

  

 The people they gathered from miles all around 

 Like a Sunday in Salem they all could be found 

 And the lights all went out with a deafening sound 

 As the church bells rang once again 

  

 The curtains were drawn and the prophets had cried 

 When somebody screamed that the joker had lied 

 But the damage was done and the saints crucified 

 And the truth will be lost till the end 

 (Repeat Chorus
