Well, who's that ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's the ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator
Wrote the book of the seventh seal
Well, God walked down in the cool of the day
And he called adam by his name
He refused to answer
'cause he was naked and ashamed
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's there ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's there ridin, john the revelator
Wrote the book of the seventh seal
Well, christ had twelve apostles
And he led twelve away
Said "walk with me one hour 'til
I go on and pray."
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator
Wrote the book of the seventh seal
Christ came down easter mornin
Mary and martha came to see
Said, "go tell my disciples
Meet me down in galilee"
Tell me who's that ridin, john the revelator, etc.
