lyrics

Crash across the western sky
I hear my neighbor Tommy cry
“Cover your eyes it’s the Four Horsement of Doom!”

A knock, I let them in of course
Each rider looking down from his horse
And the radio plays “Georgia On My Mind”

They’d never heard of Ray Charles
They’d never heard a piano

And the first rider asked me,
“What else don’t I know?”

It was then and there that our lesson began
That’s the day we became a singing band
Me on tambourine
We were the New Revelations

“Are You Willing And Able To Return My Love?”
Was our first hit single
In Texas and Arizona
“Are You Willing And Able To Return My Love?”
Playing all up and down
The whole panhandle

We sang our songs in southern towns
Lit lanterns when the lights went down
And everyone came alive in the summer

I was lost and alone
It was written in stone
Living in the words of confusion and fear
Til the horseman sang so clear

“Are you willing and able to return my love,
‘Cause I’ve come so far for you.
Are you willing and able to return my love?
Yeah! Yeah!”

They gathered round the microphone
Each rider looking right at home
And everyone came for miles to hear the New Revelations

No sadness, no sorry, no misery
Just a perfect four-part harmony
Can make you forget that this is a mean old world
