ready Dave?

mhmm



I saw Adam leave the garden with an apple in his hand

"now that you're out what are you gonna do?"

"plant some crops and wait for rain

think I'll raise a little cain

I'm an orphan now and I'm only passing through



passing through, passing through

sometimes happy, sometimes blue

glad that I ran into you

tell the people that you saw me passing through"



I saw Jesus on the cross on the hill called Calvary

"do you hate mankind for what they done to you?"

he said "speak of love not hate, 

things to do it's getting late. 

I have such little time and I'm only passing through



passing through, passing through

sometimes happy, sometimes blue

glad that I ran into you

tell the people that you saw me passing through"



I was by Franklin Roosevelt's side on the night before he died

he said "one world must come out of World War II

Yankee, Russian, white or tan, lord, a man is still a man

we're on one road and we're all just passing through



passing through, passing through

sometimes happy, sometimes blue

glad that I ran into you

tell the people that you saw me passing through



passing through, passing through

sometimes happy, sometimes blue

glad that I ran into you

tell the people that you saw me passing through"
