Well, God said to Abraham ";Kill me a son";
Abe said ";Man, you must be putting me on";
God said ";No";
Abe said ";Wha?t";
God said ";You do what you want to, Abe but
The next time you see me coming, you'd better run";
Abe said ";Where do you want this killing done?";
God said ";Out on that Highway 61";
Well, Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose
Welfare department would give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard ";Where can i go?";
Howard said ";There's only one place i know";
Sam said ";Quick man, tell me, i got to run";
Howard just pointed with his gun
He said ";that way down on 61";
";Well, Mack the finger"; said Louie the King
";I got 40 red white and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones that won't ring
You know where I can get rid of these things?";
And he said ";Now let me think for a minute son";
Said ";Yes that can be easily done
Just take them down on that 61";
That highway
Highway X4
Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
";My complexion"; she said ";is much too white";
He said ";Come here and stare up into the light";
And said ";Mmm you're right. Let me tell the second mother it's been done";
But the second mother with the seventh son
They were out on that highway 61
