They said he was the only one
He was a profit and he was a woebegone
Handing out forgiveness here to over come
Tried to reach the people, oh
He had a fire and he had reason
Against the root of all the evil'n
That's was going on
Oh Jeremiah, kicking at the dirt
Come and sit here by me, son
I'm here to tell you that you ain't got to worry none
As long as you believe, they gonna come around
(Ain't gonna come undone)
Along
Oh Jeremiah, kicking at the dirt
Someday they're gonna listen to every word
All that whistling in the wind
Just like your very own gospel, hit you in the chin
Knocking you around, then coming back again
Oh Jeremiah, kicking at the dirt
Someday they're gonna listen to every word
Oh Jeremiah, kicking at the dirt
