ApologetiX - The Boys Aren't Backin' Down lyrics

Parody of "The Boys Are Back in Town" performed by Thin Lizzy (Acts 2-4) Guess who just got back today? Them low-life boys out of Galilee Something's changed; they're much too brave But, man, I still think them cats are crazy They were actin' as if He was still around Talkin' in tongues and freakin' me out Told us He was livin' right now Tried to say the Lord had raised Him The boys aren't backin' down, the boys aren't backin' down The boys aren't backin' down, the boys aren't backin' down The boys aren't backin' down, the boys aren't backin' down The boys aren't backin' down, the boys aren't backin' down You know that cripple who couldn't stand or walk? Every time he'd be on the floor beggin' what we got Man, at the temple, he would do it at the same spot I mean he was scenery Then, that guy, you know he met John and Pete Well, that cripple got up and leapt on his feet Man, we just yelled in disbelief If that's a trick, I wanna know, it's clever CHORUS They're spreadin' the word around --they're not backin' down They're spreadin' the word around Friday Christ, well, He'd just been k**ed I didn't see those followers thrilled They laid low 'cause blood would spill And if the boys wanna preach Christ we're gonna get 'em That kook's out on the corner yackin' now and sayin' we're wrong Them guys are gettin' bolder -- it won't be long Won't be long till trouble comes -- now that the boys aren't fearin' it CHORUS The boys in Acts, the boys in Acts The boys aren't backin' down again They hail them now as heroes The boys aren't backin' down again Acts 4:13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.
