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
