What Are The Lyrics For Daniel and the Sacred Harp By The Band?
Daniel, Daniel and the sacred harp
Dancing through the clover Daniel, Daniel would you mind If I look it over I heard of this famous harp years ago Back in my home town But I sure never thought old Daniel'd be the one To come and bring it around Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your possession Are you one of the chosen few Who will march in the the procession And Daniel said The sacred harp was handed down, from father unto son And me not being related, I could never be the one So I saved up all my silver and took it to a man Who said he could deliver the harp straight into my hand Three years I waited patiently 'Til he returned with the harp from the sea of Galilee He said there is one more thing I must ask But not of personal greed But I wouldn't listen, I just grabbed the harp And said, "take what you may need" Now Daniel looked quite satisfied And the harp it seemed to go But the price that Daniel had really paid He did not even know Back to his brother, he took his troubled mind And he said, "dear brother, I'm in a bind" But the brother would not hear his tale He said Old Daniel's gonna land in jail So to his father, Daniel did run And he said, "oh father, what have I done?" His father said, "son, you've given in You know you won your harp But you lost in sin" Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwill He played out his heart just for time to pass But as he looked to the ground He noticed, no shadow did he cast Daniel, Daniel and the sacred harp Dancing through the clover Daniel, Daniel would you mind If I look it over |
