Lyrics
Peter, Paul and Mary
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.
On this rock by the sea, Peter sang a song to me,
How the little ones must grow beyond the mist.
And before the dragon's cry, Peter three times did deny,
That he knew the song was That and never this.
Oh, Paul, see the Light
You have to think three times for it to be alright
Oh, Paul, greet the dawn,
You'll be calling out the unnamed word in song.
In the bags packed today, seven demons cast away
And the song that Mary serves begins to rhyme.
For she saw her love again in the leaving of the plane,
In the garden, in the morning glory time.
Oh, Paul, see the Light
You have to think three times for it to be alright
Oh, Paul, greet the dawn,
You'll be calling out the unnamed word in song.
Peter, Paul and Mary walked upon the sea
Sang a song of freedom till love taught them to be.
Peter, Paul and Mary answer in the wind
Ring the bell of glory, He's here again, here again, here again.
La la la...
On this rock by the sea, Peter sang a song to me
How the little ones must grow beyond the mist
And before the dragon's cry, Peter three times did deny
That he knew the song was That and never this.
Oh, Paul, see the Light
You have to think three times for it to be alright
Oh, Paul, greet the dawn,
You'll be calling out the unnamed word in song.
Peter, Paul and Mary walked upon the sea
Sang a song of freedom till love taught them to be.
Peter, Paul and Mary answer in the wind
Ring the bell of glory, He's here again, here again, here again.
