Is Chocolate Pi (from 12 Mar 00) still around?
Bob Gibson did a spiritual, "Well, Well, Well", on a Newport Folk Festival album ('64?). Gave me goosebumps.
(cho)"Well, well, well -- who's that a-callin'?
      Well, well, well -- hol' my hand.
      Well, well, well -- night is a-fallin' --
      Spirit is a-movin' all ovuh this lan'.
(verse)The Lawd tol' Noah "Build you an ark.
       Build it out of hickory bark."
      *Rain started fallin'; water started to climb --
       God said a fire, not a flood next time!!
(cho)
(v)    My Lawd said fire comin' judgement day --
       All mankind's gonna pass away.
       Brothers an' sisters don't you know?
       You're gonna reap just what you sow.
(cho)
(v)    World's not waitin' for the Lawd's command;
       Buildin' a fire that'll sweep the land.
       Thunder out of heaven comin' -- Gabriel's call --
       An' the sea's gonna boil, an' the sky's gonna fall!!"

(The verses being aabb -- I get the b sections with the wrong a sections sometimes.) *This line may start "Thunder started rollin',..." Related note: Not too long ago (read "within my lifetime" - I'm 61) one of the rivers flowing out of one of the Great Lakes (?) was so polluted it caught fire. Seemed like a reminder....             Tw
      
(P.S. Does anyone remember Bill Cosby's "Riiight -- What's a Cubit?... Noah, how long can you tread water?")
