You Must Let My People Go
You Must Let My People Go To the tune of “If I Only Had a Brain” from the Wizard of Oz
I have come to tell you clearly
To let you know sincerely
My people suffer so.
God has sent me to order
Stop the bricks and the mortar
You must let my people go.
If you don’t let them skedaddle,
You’ll have some real sick cattle
And a frog will bite your toe.
All the common folks and royals
Will be breaking out in boils.
You must let my people go.
Right now we’re in a mess.
But this is just a phase.
God will bring the Hebrew people better days
And, Pharaoh, you will change your ways.
You’re afraid that the Egyptians
Will have some big conniptions
If you change the status quo.
In the end, you’ll have to do it
So you might as well get to it.
You must let my people go.
