Black Book Friends – Blues Version

Black Book Friends – Blues Version
(Jacob R. McGowen)

[1st Verse]
One day you fell in love with a
Rich New York Man
And together you constructed
A wide empire of sin
And you sought out all the innocent
And they would soon know all too well
Your vile, cruel wickedness
Spun straight from hell

[Pre-Chorus]
And on that ole island
You thought you’d get away
But I sure ain’t your master
And I’ve got something to say

[CHORUS]
You think that you’re somebody
But I know what you’ve done
I see every face
Of every victim you have harmed
You think that you’re immune
But know that in the very end
I’ll judge you and all of
Your black book friends

[2nd Verse]
Your friends, they serve in office
And they shine on the big screens
They think themselves to be
Great, righteous kings and queens
You share all of their views
And to the lord of flies
You surrender all your souls and lives

[Pre-Chorus]
And now, you want a different Order
Where all that’s wrong is right
But this world is soon ending
And you’ll answer for your crimes

[CHORUS]
You think that you’re somebody
But I know what you’ve done
I see every face
Of every victim you have harmed
You think that you’re immune
But know that in the very end
I’ll judge you and all of
Your black book friends

[Bridge]
It’s not too late for you
To receive my Son as King
But if you don’t accept Him soon
You will know My reckoning

[Outro]
You think that you’re somebody
But I know what you’ve done
I know the pain and all
The misery you’ve caused
And you’re not immune
So, don’t wait till the end
Until I judge you and all your
Black book friends…
