Lyrics
Well Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
Way in the middle of the air (Great God)
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
Way in the middle of the air
Well Great God of mine, I declare
Ezekiel saw the wheel in the middle of the air
Great big wheel and the little big wheel
The wheel turnin' over in the middle of the wheel
The good book says, and the book don't lie
That God told Ezekiel to prophecise
And my God spoke in Ezekiel's mind
He raised His voice and begin to cry
He cried, "Old bones"
Old bones are walkin'
Great God oh mighty, the old bones are talkin'
"All those bones, won't you hear me now?"
"Old bones", you hear the word of God
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
Way in the middle of the air (Great God)
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
Way in the middle of the air
Well God told Ezekiel to prophecise
He tried to do it and that's no lie
God sent the wind from the West and the East
Spirits took him from his head to his feet
He cried, "Old bones"
Old bones are walkin'
Great God oh mighty, the old bones are talkin'
"All those bones, won't you hear me now?"
"Old bones", you hear the word of God
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
Way in the middle of the air
Well old Ezekiel tried his best to do
The things the Lord had told him to
He did his best, that's all he can
After all 'Zek was a natural man
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin'
The great big wheel a-turnin' over
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin' (hmm yeah)
Way in the middle of the air
One more, one more
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin' (ol' 'Zek)
The great big wheel a-turnin' over (my man 'Zek)
Ezekiel saw de wheel a-rollin' (yeah)
Way in the middle of the air
Yes he did
Ol' 'Zek was wailin' that time
