Lyrics

Well, we done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
In the year of 19 and 18
God sent a mighty disease
It killed many a-thousand
On land and on the seas
Well, we done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
Great disease was mighty
And the people were sick everywhere
It was an epidemic
It floated through the air
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
The doctors they got troubled
And they didn't know what to do
They gathered themselves together
They called it the Spanish influ
Well, we done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
Soldiers died on the battlefield
Died in the camps too
Well, the captain said to the lieutenant
"I don't know what to do"
Well, we done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
Well, God is warning the nation
He's a-warning them every way
To turn away from the evil
And seek the Lord and pray
Well, we done told you, God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, our God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
Well, the nobles said to the people
"You better close your public schools"
"Until the events of death has ended
You better close your churches too"
We done told you, our God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
We done told you, our God's done warned you
Jesus coming soon
Read the Book of Zachariah
Bible plainly say
Thousands of people, they did die
On account of their wicked ways
Written by: Blind Willie Johnson, W. Johnson
