[Intro]
One, two, three, and
[Verse 1]
Red face at noon
Stripped naked, we can't get free
And doubling over in the street
Dozens just like me
[Refrain]
Spreading like a rumor
Spreading like a rumor
[Verse 2]
And the doctors come traveling house to house
And they visit the sick each day
Sit with them there until they're gone
Die quicker that way
Save who they save
On their way down to the grave
[Refrain]
Spreading like a rumor
Spreading like a rumor
[Verse 3]
Run to the altars beg for shade
Take to the high sea thousand strong
Hang on to your goodness when you can
Sweat it out all night long
And listen for the old melody
As it comes to me
[Outro]
On a high wind down from Ethiopia
On a high wind down from Ethiopia
On a high wind down from Ethiopia
On a high wind down from Ethiopia
