The Rebel Black Dot Song of the Day


Taj Mahal, Sam Moore, & Cab Blues (played by Joe Morton), "John the Revelator" from Blues Brothers 2000: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (The Last Angry Man)

Commentary: I have been known to quip that one should always carry one's Bible, because otherwise with what is one supposed to thump others?
"Tell me, Who's that writing? John the Revelator.
Tell me, Who's that writing? John the Revelator.
Tell me, Who's that writing? John the Revelator,
Wrote the Book of the Seven Seals…

"(The Revelation of Jesus) You know, I thought I was a policeman,
(The Revelation of Jesus) An officer of the law,
(The Revelation of Jesus) But then I had a revelation,
(The Revelation of Jesus) Because of what I saw,
(The Revelation of Jesus) Why I was always so gloomy,
(The Revelation of Jesus) Every day was dull and gray,
(The Revelation of Jesus) But now I see very clearly,
(The Revelation of Jesus) O, O, O, O happy day!

"(The Revelation of Jesus) Jesus!
(Jesus) Jesus!
(Jesus) Jesus!
(Jesus) Jesus!
(Jesus) My God, my God!
(Jesus) Jesus!
(Jesus) Jesus!…"
