YOU CAN'T SHAKE HIM, YOU CAN'T MAKE HIM
A Mudcat Gospel Song
TUNE: a little honkytonky, in 4/4

(The rhythym of the tune is like this:
REFRAIN:
Dah-DEE dah DEE-dah,
Dah-DEE dah DEE-dah,
DEE dah DEE dah-dah DEE.

VERSE:
(kinda spoken-sung)
Dah-dah DEE-dah dah-dah DEE-dah, dah-dah DEE dah-DEE dah-DEE,
Dah-dah DEE dah-dah-dah-DEE dah-dah DEE.
Dah-dah DEE dah-DEE dah-DEE dah-dah DEE-dah-dah,
Dah-dah DEE-dah dah-dah-DEE dah-dah dah.
Dah-dah-DEE-dah dah-dah-DEE-dah, dah-dah-DEE-dah dah-dah DEE,
Dah-dah DEE dah-dah-dah dah-dah-DEE.
Dah-dah-DEE-dah dah-dah-DEE-dah, dah-DEE-dah dah-DEE,
Dah DEE dah DEE dah-dah DEE.

REFRAIN:
Oh YOU can't SHAKE him
No YOU can't MAKE him,
GO-oh-OH aWAY. Oh YOU can't SHAKE him
No YOU can't MAKE him,
GO-oh-OH aWAY.

I was standin' on the corner just about the close of day,
And I saw a young lady pass by.
And she seemed to have a cloud hanging o-ver her,
An' I thought I heard a little sad cry.
So I asked her, "what's the trouble?" and she said , "Well I'm lost,
And I can't seem to find my way back."
And I said, "Well I bet Jesus could show you the way,
And keep you on the happy track."

REFRAIN:
Oh YOU can't SHAKE him
No YOU can't MAKE him,
GO-oh-OH aWAY. Oh YOU can't SHAKE him
No YOU can't MAKE him,
GO-oh-OH aWAY.

The succeeding verses are a dialog between the young lady and the passerby. In each verse she says how she does not believe in all that, and the passerby keeps assuring her that, believe in it or not, it's so, it's a fact, and whether she believes or not she can't shake him (God) or make him go away (Theme-- Nothing can separate us from the love of God.)
