Subject: Lyr Req: Told You People Judgement Coming Bahamas From: GUEST,Ewan McVicar Date: 05 Nov 17 - 03:50 AM On the album The Real Bahamas is a 58 second or so track, recorded in 1965 at midnight in an alleyway. Refrain line is 'I Told You People That The Judgement Coming But You Did Not Believe In Me, Halle Hallelelu uu yah'. But what is the rest of the lyric? I have puzzled over it for years. One line is 'Lord ah'm only astandin around'. Opinons? |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Told You People Judgement Coming Bahamas From: GUEST Date: 26 Nov 20 - 02:14 AM Recorded in 65 but that first Hallelujah sounds very similar to some 21st-century songs. In fact, a decent amount of the Rhyming spirituals give me the feeling of relation to some of the songs I grew up listening to in American popular music. |
