Peter, Paul and Mary — Very Last Day

[Chorus] Everybody gonna pray on the very last day Oh when they hear that bell a-ring the world away Everybody gonna pray to the heavens on the judgment day [Verse 1] Well you can sing about the great king David And you can preach about the wisdom of Saul But the judgment falls on all mankind When the trumpet sounds the call All equal and the same When the Lord He calls your name Get ready, brother, for that day [Chorus] Everybody gonna pray on the very last day Oh when they hear that bell a-ring the world away Everybody gonna pray to the heavens on the judgment day [Verse 2] Well one day soon all men will stand His word will be heeded in all the land Men shall know and men shall see We all are brothers and we all are free Mankind was made of clay Each of us in the very same way Get ready, brother, for that day [Chorus] Everybody gonna pray on the very last day Oh when they hear that bell a-ring the world away Everybody gonna pray to the heavens on the judgment day [Verse 3] Oh well the law is given and the law is known A tale is told and the seed is sown From dust we came into dust we'll go You the know the Lord once told us so Each brother takes His hand Heed the meaning of the Lord's command Get ready, brother, for that day [Chorus] Everybody gonna pray on the very last day Oh when they hear that bell a-ring the world away Everybody gonna pray to the heavens on the judgment day
