Lyle Lovett
Clap Yo’ Hands
[Intro]
Come on, you children, gather 'round
Gather 'round, you children

[Verse 1]
Come on, you children, gather around
Gather around, you children
And we will lose that evil spirit called the voodoo

[Verse 2]
Nothin' but trouble if he has found
If he has found you, children
But you can chase that hoodoo with the dance that you do

[Verse 3]
Let me lead the way, jubilee today, hey
He'll never hound you, stamp on the ground, you children
You children, come on

[Chorus]
Clap-a yo' hands (Clap), slap-a yo' thigh (Slap)
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Everybody come along and join the jubilee
Clap-a yo' hands (Clap), slap-a yo' thigh (Slap)
Don't you lose time, don't you lose timе
Come along, it's shake yo' shoes timе
Now for you and me
[Bridge]
On the sands of time, you are only a pebble
Remember, trouble must be treated just like a rebel
Send him to the Debble

[Chorus]
Clap-a yo' hands (Clap), slap-a yo' thigh (Slap)
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Everybody come along and join the jubilee (Jubilee)

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
On the sands of time, you are only a pebble
Remember, trouble must be treated just like a rebel
Send him to the Debble

[Chorus]
Clap-a yo' hands (Clap), slap-a yo' thigh (Slap)
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Everybody come along and join the jubilee
Clap-a yo' hands (Clap), slap-a yo' thigh (Slap)
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Everybody come along and join the jubilee (Jubilee)
Let me lead the way, jubilee today
Come along and join the jubilee
