Pharaoh Pharaoh Ooohh Baby Let My People Go…
Week 2 of the Exodus class was last night. The plagues were the topic. Who knew when I went to Pharaoh and asked to let the people go that someone would use that for a song.

(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
I said, Pharaoh, Pharaoh, oooh baby, let my people go (Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
Well-a me’n God’s people comin’ to the Red Sea
And Pharaoh’s army comin’ after me

And all of God’s people walked across dry land. I said …
Pharaoh, Pharaoh, oooh baby, let my people go
(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
I said, Pharaoh, Pharaoh, oooh baby, let my people go (Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
Well-a Pharaoh’s army is a comin’ too

And all of Pharaoh’s army did the dead man’s float. I said
