Woo-oo-oo.. woah-yeah now
I will open my mouth in a parable
And sing the dark sayings of old
And much wisdom and knowledge stretch forth their hands
Unto you, o children, I cry
All the words of my mouth speak righteousness
All the days of my life will tell
Take heed of the words of Jahovah
Or men you will surely fail, ooh-ooh
Woah yeah yeah nah-nah, oh yeah
Ooh, woahohoh yeah
In laughter the heart is sorrowful
Your folly is your reward
Better a dinner of herbs where love is
Than feasting where there is wrath
All the words of my mouth speak righteousness
All the days of my life will tell
Take heed of the words of Jahovah
Or men you will surely fail
Woah yeah now, now
Woah-oh-oh yeah! Ooh-ooh yeah - oh yeah now
(..)
So take heed Jah people and live upright
For this is the time that will tell
When the righteous ones, shall stand up strong
Oh, why did the heathen rage?
All the words of my mouth speak righteousness
All the days of my life will tell
Take heed of the words of Jahovah
Or men you will surely fail
Woah yeah now, hmm, oh yeah, said you will surely fail
Oh yeah now, hmm, oh yeah now
So I will open my mouth in a parable
And sing the dark sayings of old
So much wisdom and knowledge stretch forth their hands
Unto you, o children, I cry
All the words of my mouth speak righteousness
All the days of my life will tell!
Take heed of the words of Jahovah
Or men you will surely fail
Ooh hmm, oh yeah now, hmm, ooh, hmm
Woah yeah, now, now
Live up, live up, now now, live up
Never give up righteousness!
Oh yeah now, keep it up, son
Follow the footsteps of your Father!
Oh yeah, now, now
Words of wisdom, words of wisdom
Words of wisdom I hold to
I said I hold to, ooh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah..
