Lyrics

My mind begins to wander. way back yonder I recall
The day aunt osie stood on the porch and said to me, "be careful of the world and all."
She knew much more than I thought, but I was young too young to know
Now I have seen too much too soon and somewhere, and somehow, something's a-gonna blow

Gabriel your face is red. be careful you'll hurt your head. and wind up dead
Like the world has lost its ears and eyes
Is it wise to sympathize, when harmony has been kicked in the knee
And sour notes a-singin' their sad, sad song
Gabriel won't you go on home. gabriel won't you go on home

My mind begins to wonder, way out yonder I can see
A brand new star has now been born to make things warm and bright for you and me
Hey here, hey there, hey you, I've got some proof, it's really so
Peace on earth, goodwill to men. and somewhere, somehow, something's a-gonna blow

Gabriel your face is red. be careful you'll hurt your head. and wind up dead
Like the world has lost its ears and eyes
Is it wise to sympathize, when harmony has been kicked in the knee
And sour notes a-singin' their sad, sad song
Gabriel won't you go on home. gabriel won't you go on home
