Do you hear that playin'?
Yes, we hear that playin'!
Do you know who's playin'?
No, who is that playin'?
Why it's Gabriel, Gabriel playin'
Gabriel, Gabriel sayin'
Will you be ready to go when I blow my horn?
Blow, Gabriel, blow
Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow
I was a sinner, I was a scamp
But now I'm willing to trim a lamp
So blow, 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 and higher
'Cause I've gone through the brimstone
And I've gone through the fire
And I've purged my soul and my heart too
So climb up the mountain top and start to
Blow, Gabriel, blow
Go on and 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
Come on you sinners, get up you sinners
You're all too full of expensive dinners
Stand up on your lazy feet and say...
Hallelujah!
Come on and blow, Gabriel, blow
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!
