I woke up on a Sunday just five days before I died
Told my friends to get a donkey quick, for to Jerusalem i must ride
The prophecy said a king will come humble and riding low
So they went and snatched a little foal and to town then we did go
We left from Bethany headed down to the Kidron Valley
Everybody cutting palm branches down for this long awaited rally
Not every day that God comes ridin on a donkey into town
they call this day Palm Sunday,
the day that the Lord came ridin down
Jerusalem‘s just a couple miles and the ride was uneventful
but When we started gettin close people started gettin joyful
They threw their coats right on the ground and cut the palm branches too
They made a road so soft and smooth
that carried the good Lord through
We left from Bethany headed down to the Kidron Valley
Everybody cutting palm branches down for this long awaited rally
Not every day that God comes ridin on a donkey into town
they call this day Palm Sunday the day that the Lord came ridin down
we entered town. They were looking down, kind of puzzled like from the walls.
the Pharisees and the Roman guards walking nervously down the halls
They wondered why such a poor young man
Would come riding like a king
They didn’t know how things were gonna go
And what the rest of this week would bring
We left from Bethany headed down to the Kidron Valley
Everybody cutting palm branches down for this long awaited rally
Not every day that God comes ridin on a donkey into town
they call this day Palm Sunday the day that the Lord came ridin down
The sad thing was, though the people shouted
Hosanna to the son of David
in Five short days they would change their ways
And have me executed!
Yes, they’re going to have me crucified
We left from Bethany headed down to the Kidron Valley
Everybody cutting palm branches down for this long awaited rally
Not every day that God comes ridin on a donkey into town
they call this day Palm Sunday the day that the Lord came ridin down
