Mo boys, is you right

Done got it right

All I hate about linin¡¯ track

These ol¡¯ boys are gonna break my back



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Down in the holler below the fleld

Angels working on the chariot wheel



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Mary and the babe was a sittin¡¯ in the shade

Thinking on the money that I ain¡¯t made



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Moses stood on the Red Sea shore

Gotta batten down the waves with a 2 by 4



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Now if I could I surely would

Stand on the rock where Moses stood



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Matthew, Mark, Luke and John

All them disciples dead and gone



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track



Mo boys, is you right

Done got it right

All I hate about lining track

These ol¡¯ boys about to break my back



Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

Mo boys, can¡¯t you line ¡¯em (track a lack)

See Eloise gonna line ¡¯em track
