Once I got to the mountains tell you what I could see
Percales of souls running from the priests of iniquity
Where the hell was Elijah and what do you do
Prophesies came us through
You can't take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
To the very top
Say the truth crystallizes
Like jewels in the rock
In the rock
Get down Moses
Part another sea
Carve it on the tablets of L.S.D.
Get down Moses
Down in Tennessee
Get down Moses
Down here on the street
Blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get down Moses
Down in the pit
Lying in a dream across battlefields
Crashing on the downtown strip
Looking in the eyes of the diamonds in the spies
And the hip
Whose sponsoring
It's like ghetto who's lecturing
Cause then they'll know and then they don't know
You better take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
Going to the very top
Well the truth crystallizes
Like jewels in the rock
In the rock
Get down Moses
From the Eagle's eyrie
You gotta make new friends out of old enemies.
Get down Moses
Like in Tennessee
Get down Moses
Down here in the dreads
They got a lotta reasoning in a dreadhead
Get down Moses
Down in the street
Get down mosses
Part another sea
Carve it on the tablets of L.S.D.
Get down Moses
Down in Tennessee
Get down Moses
Down here on the street
Blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get down Moses
Down in the pit
Get down Moses
We need to eat
We gotta to chew it over with our wisdom teeth
Get down Moses

Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros furono una band musicale formatasi nel 1999 con Joe Strummer, ex frontman dei Clash, alla voce e alla chitarra. Il gruppo ha pubblicato tre album prima della morte di Strummer nel 2002. I membri del gruppo erano musicisti eclettici, molti dei quali esperti in più strumenti. La formazione originale comprendeva: Joe Strummer (voce, chitarra), Antony Genn (chitarra), Scott Shields (basso), Martin Slattery (tastiere, chitarra, flauto e sassofono su alcune canzoni), Pablo Cook (percussioni) e Smiley (Steve Barnard) alla batteria. Richard Flack contribuiva con effetti sonori e altri strumenti. La musica dei Mescaleros era un mix di punk rock, folk e reggae, influenzata dalle esperienze musicali di Strummer. Tra i brani più noti del gruppo figurano "Yalla Yalla", "Long Shadow" e "Rudie Can't Fail".
