B A
Muhammad, my friend, it’s time to tell the world
A D E
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
B A
And on that fateful day when she was crucified
A D E
She wore Shiseido Red and we drank tea by her side
[Chorus]
B A E A
Sweet, sweet, sweet
D E
Used to be so sweet to me, well
[Verse 2]
B A
Muhammad, my friend, I’m getting very scared
A D E
Teach me how to love my brothers who don’t know the law
B A E
And what about the deal on the flying trapeze?
A D E
Got a peanut butter hand, but honey do drop in at the Dew Drop Inn
[Chorus]
B A E A
Sweet, sweet, sweet
D E
Between the boys and the bees
B A E A
Sweet, sweet, sweet
B A E A
Sweet, sweet, yes
D E
Between the boys and the bees
[Bridge]
B
And Moses, I know
A
I know you’ve seen fire
A
But you’ve never seen fire
D E
Until that you’ve seen Pele blow
B
And I’ve never seen light
A
But I sure have seen gold
A
And Gladys save a place for me on your grapevine
D E
Till I get my own TV show
B A (E)
Ashre, ashre, ashre, ashre
A
And if I lose my Cracker Jacks at the tidal wave
D E
I got a place in the Pope’s rubber robe
[Outro]
B A
I said Muhammad, my friend, it’s time to tell the world
A D E
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
A D E
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
A D E
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
A D E
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
