The Prodigal Son, he'd been away a while
He was working his way back home now over many a ragged
mile
When he finally crossed the river
And his father saw him near
There was a joyful sound for all the world to hear
I listened to what the Good Book said,
And it made good sense to me
Talkin' 'bout reapin' what you're sowin'
People tryin' to be free
Now we've got new names and faces,
This time round,
Gospel Changes, Lord, still goin' down
Jesus, He did not doubt His gifts
Though He knew that He had not long to live
He took care of the business
Of teachin' us how to fly
Then He bowed his head and laid down to die
I listened to what the Good Book said,
And it made good sense to me
Talkin' 'bout reapin' what you're sowin'
People tryin' to be free
Now we've got new names and faces,
This time round,
Gospel Changes, Lord, still goin' down
Jerusalem, I see you standing high
But if you lose your sal vation there'll be
no tears left to cry
Now some men worship a Golden Calf
While others are bought and sold
And if we live like that brother we pay the toll
I listened to what the Good Book said,
And it made good sense to me
Talkin' 'bout reapin' what you're sowin'
People tryin' to be free
Now we've got new names and faces,
This time round,
Gospel Changes, Lord, still goin' down (2x)
Still goin', down, yeah, yeah, yeah, still goin' down
Gospel Changes, Lord, still goin' down
I hope that one was enjoyed.
