Lyrics
Let The Dead
By Lonny S. Jarrett Copyright 2007
Let the dead bury the dead
Everybody else move straight ahead
Let their dead bury the dead
And let’s move on
Let the dead bury the dead
Listen to what he said
Let the dead bury the dead
Everybody move on
Those who are sleeping
Open up your eyes
Let go of the past
Keep moving on
Those who are weeping
Better dry your eyes
Wake up to the light of a new son
Let the dead bury their dead
Everybody else move straight ahead
Let the dead bury their dead
Everybody move on
Let the dead bury the dead
Listen to what he said
Let the dead bury the dead
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
Move on, move on, move on......
How many of us would look him in the eyes?
Like going blind from staring at the sun
The truth will set you free
That is what he said
Better listen now cause we don’t have long.
Solo
Let the dead bury the dead
Everybody else straight on ahead
Let the dead bury the dead
And let’s move on
Let the dead bury the dead
Listen to what the man said
Let the dead bury the dead
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
Everybody move on
