Moses went up to the mountain
To see what he could see
Well he come down talking bout a burning bush
Says This is how it s gonna be
He s scared to death
You know the rest

Columbus went down to the ocean
In 1492
He said BoysI m looking for India
But America will do
Sailed to the west
You know the rest

Davey Crockett went out to Texas
To fight at the Alamo
Old Will Travis never told him
Texas is in Mexico
It s a bloody mess
You know the rest

Robert Johnson went down to the crossroads
A guitar in his hands
Wellthe devil had him a guitartoo
He says This is what you need man
You can be the best
You know the rest

Well this song ain t got no reason
Hell this song barely rhymes
Well it come to me when I was asleep
And it wakes me up sometimes
I can t get no rest
You know the rest
