Brothers and sisters, we are here tonight to fight the devil
Do you hear that playin'?
Yes I hear that playin'
Do you know who's playin'?
No who is that playin'?
Why it's Gabriel, Gabriel playin'
Gabriel, Gabriel saying
Will you be ready to go when I blow my horn?
(Refrain)
Oh blow, Gabriel blow
Go an' blow, Gabriel blow
I've been a sinner', I've been a scamp
And now I'm willin' to trim my lamp
So blow, Gabriel blow
I've been low, Gabriel low
Mighty low, Gabriel low
But now since I have seen the light
I'm good by day and I'm good by night
So blow, Gabriel blow

[Verse:]
Once I was headed for hell
Once I was headed for hell
But when I got to Satan's door
I heard you blowin' on your horn once more
So I said "Satan, farewell."
And now I'm all ready to fly
Just to fly higher and higher
'cause I've been through brimstone
And I've been through the fire
And I've purged my soul
And my heart too
So climb up the mountain top and start to
Blow, Gabriel blow
Go on an' blow, Gabriel blow
I want to join your happy band
And play all day in the promised land
So blow, Gabriel blow
Come on you scamps, get up you sinners
You're all too full of expensive dinners
Stand up on your lazy feet and sing!
(Refrain)
[Verse:]
