Lyrics

Well, get up John, go down to Jordan
 Get up John, prepare the way
 Man from Galilee is waitin'
 You must meet him there today
 Get up John, go tell my people
 This will be a Holy day
 Tell them of the Jew that's waiting
 That the Saviour's on the way
 John (you've been chosen)
 John (go unafraid)
 John (I'll go with you)
 John The Baptist, this is the day
 ♪
 Well, get up John, go tell Jerusalem
 Saviour's waiting on the shore
 Baptize Him in the River of Jordan
 I'll send a dove from Heaven's door
 John (you've been chosen)
 John (go unafraid)
 John (I'll go with you)
 John The Baptist, this is the day
 ♪
 Well, get up John, your work is finished
 Daylight breaks, the soldiers come
 You will die for me tomorrow
 Welcome home, your race is run
 John (you've been chosen)
 John (go unafraid)
 John (I'll go with you)
 John The Baptist, this is the day

 Where would we be without Bill Monroe
 I tell ya, he's, he's my hero
 Alright
 Mr. Monroe was in the room when they were putting the make up on the boys
 Was putting make up on Sam
 And he said that, "I've got some scissors if you need 'em"

 Has anybody checked out the
 Well, the gift shop's closed
 I wanna say that I checked out, the best item is a Mini pearl fan
 And it's a live size picture of Mini's face
 And uh, it has the, the price tag is the same and the price tag on her head
 It's kind of a genious, well I liked it, I bought one
 It's in the place of honour in my music room
 And it works too, you know
 We're gonna do some sort of medly here
