Begin the Beguine Songtext

von Artie Shaw and His Orchestra

[G]
Listen poor sinner; you're driftin' away >From the Dear Saviour; who's pleading to-
[D]
day
[G]
What will you do; when the Saviour ain't
[C]
nigh When the Pale
[G]
Horse and his
[D]
rider goes
[G]
by? The time now ain't long; when the Saviour will come Then you'll be judged; by the deeds you have done On that judgement day; you'll weep and you'll cry When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by? When that trumpet sounds; on the sinners below Not even the angels; in heaven will know Then's when you'll wish; you had Jesus nigh When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by? Won't you redeem; your poor wicked soul You can't pay your way; with Silver and Gold If you're not saved; you'll be lost in the night When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by?
