I'm gon tell y'all a story bout Apostle Paul
Could you repeat that?
I said
I'm gon tell y'all a story bout Apostle Paul
Cruisin' up and down that fretboard like it was the road to Damascus
(Where you headed, pilgrim?)
If you don't know the way, you better ask us
(You better ask somebody!)
It was a mind
Expanding
Revelation
Revelation
Revelation, revelation, revelation
Who came here to feel the spirit?
Who came here to get inspired?
We built this house on love, can you feel it?
Now the boy and the reverend are trading licks now
(Yes, praise Jesus!)
Hotter than a party on the River Styx now
(Come on now, praise God!)
Leadin' the church on a Holy Ghost search
It's a pilgrimage of a solo
(Well, well, well)
It's a Fillmore West Bank solo
(Well, well, well)
You're tappin' your foot but you don't hear me though
And the boy is tagging along
Found the message in his song
He was free, guaranteed
Gotta let the pilgrim lead, come on church
Now, is God real?
(Yes, he's real!)
Well, can you deal with the real?
(We can deal with the real!)
Now, is God real?
(Oh yes, he's real!)
Now can you deal with the real?
(We can deal with the real!)
Now, is God real?
(Oh yes, he's real!)
Well, can you deal with the real?
(We can deal with the real!) Hit me with the holy ghost!
The bubble was expanding
There was a new understanding
Music is a freight train on which God travels
Bang! It does its thang and then my soul unravels
Heals like holy water and it fights all my battles
Music is a freight train on which God travels
Music is a freight train (Oh lord!) on which God travels (Oh lord!)
Bang! It does its thang (Oh lord!) and then my soul unravels (Oh lord!)
Heals like holy water (Oh lord!) and it fights all my battles (Oh lord!)
Music is a freight train (Oh lord!) on which God travels (Oh lord!)
(Yes, Jesus... Hallelujah...)
Now, is God real?
(Yes, he's real!)
Well, can you deal with the real?
(We can deal-
