Lyrics

Elijah

Elijah Rock!

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

Satan ain't nothin' but a

snake in the grass

He's a conjur, he's a liar

Hallelujah, Lord.

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

Elijah rock shout shout

Elijah rock comin' up Lord

If I could I surely would

Stand on the rock where Moses stood

If I could I surely would

Stand on the rock where Moses stood

Elijah rock, oh Elijah rock

Elijah

Elijah rock, oh Elijah rock

Elijah

Hallelujah Jesus, Hallelujah Jesus

Rock Elijah, Rock Elijah

Comin' up Lawdy, Comin' up Lawdy

Oh oh oh Elijah, Oh oh oh oh

Elijah

Oh Elijah

Elijah rock Elijah rock shout

comin' I'm comin' I'm comin' up Lord
