Nino Ferrer – Moses lyrics
MOSES

Moses
You better slow down your pace
You know sometimes, haste makes waste
Moses
You better stop blowing the breeze
You better give the jive the freeze
Moses
You better keep the wheel a turning
Cause the man is churning too.

Don’t do what I do
Do what I say
Don’t do what I do
Do what I say

Moses
You better stop hoaging the joint
Because you know it ain’t no point.
Moses
You better stop your hoochie koo
And put them ribs on the barbecue.
Moses
You better stop popping your gum
Sucking your thumb and looking dumb.

Don’t do what I do
Do what I say

Moses
You better stop chasing the boys
And get some unbreakable toys.
Moses
You better stop sleeping so late
And try to get up half past eight
Moses
You better stop steering a fuss
Because what would you do without us.

Don’t do what I do
Do what I say
