Текст песни Mighty Good Book - Gillian Welch

There's a mighty Good Book, and it tells a story
It's a Bible on a shelf
Oh, you know the names, and you know the stories
Have you ever read it for yourself?

It's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
Of the man who died on the way
It's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
And it's just as true today

Oh, it tells of the hill in the Land of Zion
Where they took a man who made no crime
While the wicked watched, and the women were cryin'
And the sun refused to shine

Well, it's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
Of the man who died on the way
It's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
And it's just as true today

Now there's gonna come a day when you go to glory
Ain't gonna heed the Master's call
Are you gonna wish you read the story
Of when Jesus paid it all?

It's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
Of the Man who died on the way
It's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
And it's just as true today

Well, it's a mighty Good Book
It's a mighty Good Book
And it's just as true today
