Ezekiel Saw The Wheel
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(Chorus)
Ezekiel saw that wheel
Way up in the middle of the air
Ezekiel saw that wheel whirling
Way up in the middle of the air
Now the little wheel runs by faith
And the big wheel runs by the grace of God
And a wheel in a wheel whirling
Way up in the middle of the air
Tell you what a hypocrite he will do
(Way up in the middle of the air)
He'll talk about me and he'll talk about you
(Way up in the middle of the air)
[Chorus]
Brothers and sisters tell you what you gotta do
Way up in the middle of the air
Join about union two by two
Way up in the middle of the air
[Chorus]
Tell you what a bootlegger he will do
Way up in the middle of the air
Sell you liquor and liquor with fruit
Way up in the middle of the air
[Chorus]
